A Sessions Court rejected the bail petition of Rajkumar Singh (34), who with two others, is accused of driving away with a Traffic Police constable while in an inebriated State.
The Court said Singh, a history-sheeter, might flee if released on bail.
On July 16, near Chedda Nagar in Chembur, the Police constable had asked the three, Singh, Viraj Shinde and Gurav Panjwani, dozing in a car on the middle of the road to move to the side.
The trio instead put the constable in their car and drove off, resulting in a 15-min chase that ended on the Eastern Express highway at Vikhroli.
Rejecting the petition, the Court said it saw substance in the prosecution’s apprehension that the accused may abscond.
