Amin says he feels ‘pressured’ in company of other accuse

Amin’s application has been opposed by other eight accused,including D G Vanzara and Rajkumar Pandiyan,who want to remain present in the court during the hearing. They are expected to file an application against Amin’s plea seeking permission to remain present in the court during the hearing on Wednesday.

Amin has moved an application under the provisions of the Code of Criminal Procedure seeking pardon and court’s permission to turn approver in the case. The application was kept for hearing on Tuesday.

However,due to unavailability of Amin’s and CBI’s lawyers at different times,the hearing was adjourned to November 2.

Following this,Amin’s lawyer Jagdish Ramani requested the court to make sure that other accused are not present in the court during the hearing.

The other accused’s lawyer,Preyas Limbachiya,objected to this stating that the accused have the right to remain present in the court to be acquainted with the developments of the case.

After a round of heated arguments,Ramani moved a formal application in the court. Whereas,Limbachiya told the court that he would move an application seeking permission to remain present in the court on Wednesday. The court is likely to pass an appropriate order after this.
