Delhi Court Rejects Bias Allegations in High-Profile Murder Case

A Delhi court has turned down a plea from a defendant in a murder case that sought the transfer of proceedings to another court, citing alleged bias. Principal District and Sessions Judge Madhu Jain found no credible evidence supporting Ankit's claims of unfair treatment by the current magisterial court.

Ankit, accused under a 2025 FIR for murder and other charges, argued that his ability to defend himself was compromised due to bias. He insisted the transfer was necessary for justice. However, the court concluded that his complaint lacked detailed incidents or specific evidence of potential bias.

The decision emphasized that legal procedures were followed, with no concrete proof of bias influencing the trial. The court suggested that Ankit's application appeared more about delaying the judicial process than tackling genuine concerns, as it was not backed by actionable evidence.
