Dismissed police constable Vinayak Shinde, an accused in the Antilia bomb scare - businessman Mansukh Hiran murder case, on Monday, filed a bail plea before a special court.
Shinde was arrested in March last year in the present case while he was on parole after a conviction in a fake encounter case. The National Investigation Agency (NIA), the prosecution in the case, has claimed that Shinde was part of the conspiracy to eliminate Hiran and had allegedly also played a role in executing the murder.
