The apex court, on Wednesday, 25 January, granted interim bail to Ashish Mishra, son of Union Minister Ajay Mishra Teni. Mishra was named accused in the Lakhimpur Kheri case after vehicles, allegedly from his convoy, mowed down a group of farmers in 2021.
While deciding to keep Mishra’s regular bail applications pending, a bench of Justices Surya Kant and JK Maheshwari granted him interim bail, reportedly in order adjudge the impact of his release on trial.
