Important cases heard in Delhi High Court on May 16

     Important cases heard in Delhi High Court on Friday, May 16:

     * Refusing to grant bail to a lawyer in a case of road rage, the HC has said granting the relief for "broad daylight violence" in a public place would send "wrong signals" to society that the aggressor walked free because of his profession.

     * HC has denied interim bail on medical grounds to Popular Front of India leader A S Ismail, who is accused in a terror case noting he was showing improvement.

     * Differentiating between civil employment and employment in paramilitary forces, the HC has said the personnel in forces were required to be in "optimal physical condition" which was not merely a preference but a necessity for operational effectiveness and safety.

     * HC pulled up Delhi Police and Uttar Pradesh Police for passing the buck and not registering an FIR in a case where a 20-year-old youth was found dead in his car in Noida with a carbon monoxide cylinder in it.

     * HC orally said it was inclined to stay an order of the Delhi Public School, Dwarka, removing 32 students from the school rolls over a fee dispute.

     * Turkish company Celebi Airport Services India Pvt Ltd approached the HC challenging the decision of aviation watchdog BCAS revoking its security clearance in the "interest of national security".
