Srinagar: The Jammu and Kashmir High Court has barred police from filing a charge-sheet against Doda MLA Mehraj Malik but allowed the investigation to continue.
The case pertains to charges under Section 356(2) (assault with intent to dishonour), Section 79 (obstructing a public servant), and Section 351(2) (use of force to deter a public servant).
Justice Rajesh Sekhri, while hearing the petition, issued notices to the respondents and granted them four weeks to file their objections. The matter is scheduled for the next hearing on October 31, 2025.
