The Magistrate’s decision to deny the duo bail was because the offense was an indictable matter that could only be dealt with at the High Court.
Both accused persons chose private lawyers.
Magistrate Prasad said the duo would remain in remand until they appeared for their first call at the High Court on May 3.
