The Supreme Court on Monday refused to quash the attempt to murder case registered against Gujarati spiritual guru Asaram Bapu, who sought a restraint on the state police from arresting him. A bench of Justices Altamas Kabir and Swatanter Kumar found no merit in the plea of senior counsel Sushil Kumar that the accused had no role in the murderous attempt on one of his erstwhile follower, Raju Chandak.<br/><br/>The senior counsel claimed that Asaram Bapu was present in Delhi delivering a discourse when the incident took place. After the apex court refused to entertain his plea, the counsel sought permission to withdraw the petition as dismissed.
