Insurance racket: 2 accused granted bail

Chandigarh: The Punjab and Haryana high court has granted bail to Pawan Bhoria and Mohit, who allegedly got cancer patients insured by different companies and later showed them as killed in accidents or dead by natural causes.

“The petitioners have been in custody for the past more than one year and three months and the prosecution evidence is yet to start. It will take some time in conclusion of the trial and also in view of the fact that 20 co-accused of the petitioners, including doctors and police officials have been granted bail. The petitioners are directed to be released on bail. However, it will be open for the prosecution to apply for cancellation of bail of the petitioners in case they are found involved in any other case or misusing the concession of bail in any manner,” ordered the HC while granting them bail.

Justice Arvind Singh Sangwan passed these orders while allowing the bail plea filed by Bhoria and Mohit.
