The Supreme Court on Monday slammed the Gujarat government for failing to file an appeal against the high court order, granting bail to two persons, accused of flogging a Dalit man to death, on the outskirts of Rajkot, in 2018.

A bench comprising Justices M RShah and B VNagarathna set aside the high court order granting bail to Zala and Radadiya, and criticised the state government for failing to file an appeal against the order in such a serious matter. (IANS)
