Coimbatore, Sept 03: A court here today rejected a petition filed by 'Nakkeeran' reporter Shivasubramanian seeking interim bail to see his ailing father.
The reporter, an accused in some Veerappan-related cases, was also included as an accused in the murder of a city student, whose body was found in a forest area four years ago.
He had filed the interim bail petition yesterday in the sessions court, following denial of bail earlier in the fifth judicial magistrate court, which was trying the case.
District principal Sessions Judge M Thanikachalam rejected the plea, based on the arguments from the prosecution, police said.
