Prabhakar's bail application to be opposed

Onkar Singh

The Uttaranchal police will oppose the bail application of former India cricketer Manoj Prabhakar when it comes up for hearing before the Uttaranchal high court later this week.

Talking to rediff.com, Uttaranchal Director General of Police A K Saran said though the cricketer has got temporary relief from the Uttaranchal high court, by getting a three-week stay on his arrest, the state police will present its case when it comes up for hearing at the next date.

"The stay was granted without giving us an opportunity to explain our case. The matter is coming up later this week. We will go the court armed with our investigation material and oppose his bail application," Saran said.

Asked about Prabhakar's claim that his deposits too are stuck with the Apace finance group, Saran said they would have to be supported by documents or returns filed by Prabhakar before the income tax authorities.

"He can claim anything, but he will have to show this. How is it that Prabhakar and Divya Nautial move the high court the same day and get the same relief if Nautiyal's firm owes him money? In any case, we are carrying on with our investigations in the three cases registered against him in Haldwani. We need him to explain his conduct. If he had nothing to hide then why did he not join the investigations in the first place?" asked Saran.

When contacted on phone, Mrs Prabhakar said her husband is not likely to return to Delhi until next week "because of the case which is coming up for hearing soon".
