Bail granted to Binay Tamang in Sibchu case - Gorkhaland

Gorkha Janmukti Morcha (GJM) Joint Secretary and Gorkhaland Territorial Administration (GTA) Sabha Member Benoy Tamang has been granted bail in the Sibchu case. Chief Judicial Magistrate Choudhary Hifajat Karim accepted the bail appeal made in behalf of the plaintiff by Swarup Mandal, Sandeep Dutta and Dinesh Rai.

It may be noted that on 8th February 2011, GJM cadres and supporters led by party president Bimal Gurung had marched from Kumani near Kalimpong and defying Section 144 and breaking barricade set by the Police. The ensuing melee had resulted in police firing at the protesters and causing the death of three GJM cadres.
According to sources, Tamang’s bail has also pointed to the fact that a tactic understanding has been reached between the State Government and the GJM whereby the imprisoned GJM leaders and cadres will be released and the GJM would participate in the GTA.
