Kochi, Monday, December 21, 2009: Sufiya Maudani, wife of PDP chief Adul Nasser Maudani and the tenth accused in the Kalamassery bus torching case has moved bail petition before Ernakulam Sessions Court.

The earlier bail plea moved before Alwaye Judicial First Class Magistrate Court was rejected following which Sufiya was arrested on Thursday.

However, the Court would not hear the petition today.
Sufiya was arrested from her residence shortly after the Kerala High Court dismissed her anticipatory bail application in connection with the burning of a Tamil Nadu bus in the state in September 2005.

Sufiya was named as the tenth accused by the Kerala police recently after the interrogation of suspected Lashkar-e-Taiba militant T Nazir, who was picked up by the Bangladesh Rifles along with an associate and handed over to Indian security agencies.
