The defence counsel, appearing on behalf of the accused involved in the July 2006 train serial blast case, is drilling holes in the prosecution’s theory, while advancing his final arguments in the case. The defence counsel claimed that the investigating agency had misguided the magistrate, while seeking the police custody of the accused at the remand stage in 2006. Advocate Wahab Khan reportedly maintained that the investigating agency, at the initial stage, had sought 14 days police custody of the accused on false grounds that the latter were allegedly in touch with the most wanted terrorist, Azam Chima, who is allegedly involved in the case, but absconding.

Advocate Khan further added that when the defence advocate asked for the CDR reports of the accused, the prosecution time and again opposed the application on the grounds that they had missed out of the important CDR records.
