In court on
Monday, lawyer for the four who are alleged to have bought the phone prayed the
court to grant his clients bail as they cannot be linked with the robbery nor
the alleged killing.

prosecution opposed the bail application claiming that the accused persons have
no permanent place of abode.
The judge after
considering the case remanded the four accused persons together with the other
two into prison custody to reappear on March 27, 2023.
