A Delhi court has granted default bail to six Ukrainian nationals in a terror case being investigated by India’s National Investigation Agency, The Hindu reported. The relief was granted on default-bail grounds. The available report says the agency failed to file a charge sheet within the required 180-day period.
The case was described as an NIA terror case, but the source material does not provide details of the allegations, the date of the arrests or the identities of the accused beyond their nationality. The report placed the decision alongside an earlier development in which an American national received default bail in a separate Myanmar conspiracy probe. In that matter too, the agency had failed to file a charge sheet within the 180-day period.
The available material does not state whether the NIA challenged the court’s decision or specify conditions attached to the bail.
