Cuttack: The court of the Additional District Judge (ADJ)-II on Tuesday rejected the bail plea of Nirmal Rout, a close associate of the Dhalasamant brothers.
Rout had earlier prayed the court to grant him the interim bail on the health ground but the court had rejected his appeal.
Notably, the commissionerate police, in course of investigation, had come to know about the murder of Om and Dipu, the two associates of Dhalasamant brothers, inside a farmhouse, owned by Rout at Khuntakata near Athagarh.
