The Twisha Sharma murder case will be heard in the same court that earlier granted anticipatory bail to retired judge Giribala Singh, with his son Samarth also charged.
The criminal case concerning the death of Twisha Sharma has been scheduled to proceed in the same court that previously granted anticipatory bail to retired judge Giribala Singh. The court will now also hear the charges against his son, Samarth, who has been named an accused in the investigation.
Giribala Singh, a former judge, had secured anticipatory bail from the same bench earlier this year, a decision that drew public attention. Following new developments, the prosecution has moved to have the trial conducted in that jurisdiction, ensuring continuity of proceedings.
Legal experts note that retaining the original court may streamline the case, given the existing records and prior orders. The matter remains under the jurisdiction of the Bhopal District Court in Madhya Pradesh, where further hearings are expected to be scheduled shortly.
