Lawyer for the three accused persons arrested in the Mungul gang case, Adv Spencer Viegas has said that the trio were not absconding after the incident, but have been staying at their respective homes since the incident occurred on August 12.
He said the trio have decided to surrender to the police after a notice was issued to them and their families. “Since they have been served a notice, the trio have surrendered to police to join in the investigations”, he said.
“The trio have been staying at their respective homes. We do not know whether the police did not find them at their homes or not. But, since the police have served the notices, they have decided to surrender and join in the investigations”, Adv Spencer said.
To a question that accused Amogh Naik had filed for anticipatory bail before the Sessions Court, Spencer said the accused have exhausted his options at his disposal before deciding to surrender to join in the investigations. “Let us wait and see how the police would go about the matter now”, he added.
