A city civil and sessions court adjourned actor Duniya Vijay’s bail plea to Monday, forcing him to spend his weekend at the Parappana Agrahara Central Prison.

Vijay’s counsel told the court that serious IPC sections were pressed against his client to prevent him from getting bail. The actor visited the police station with celebrity gym trainer Maruthi Gowda after the latter’s uncle H Krishnamurthy alias Kitty lodged a complaint of abduction and assault against him.

The counsel also reminded the court that a case has been registered against Kitty for headbutting his client and vandalising his car at the station. While Vijay’s counsel argued his client could be granted bail, the prosecution objected, stating the actor had a history of assault and granting him bail would hamper the investigation as the actor could influence and intimidate witnesses.
