Pathankot, June 14: One of the witnesses in the Rassana gangrape and murder case has been threatened by the accused, the Jammu and Kashmir Police on Thursday said in an application before a court here. SSP (Crime Branch) Jammu, Ramesh Kumar Jalla in the application before the District and Sessions Court, which is hearing the case, alleged that the witness, whose statement was being recorded, was threatened by the accused, defence lawyer A K Sawhney told reporters outside the court. However, the defence counsel objected to it and termed it as a "sensational application moved to hype the matter in media". "It could be motivated by the prosecution or someone else... this all is being done to get Z-grade security," the defence lawyer said. Also, District and Sessions Judge Tajwinder Singh ordered the superintendent of the Kathua Jail to ensure that the relatives can meet the accused in the prison immediately after reaching there and not need to wait. The judge passed the order in response to an application moved by the lawyers of the family of one of the accused, Tilak Raj. The defence counsel had said since the accused are moved from Kathua Jail to the court on daily basis and have to leave at around 9 am, their families are unable to meet them. On a request of perjury by the defence counsel, the court asked the prosecution to again submit translated copies of statements of the case from Urdu to English to everybody.
