A court in Maharashtra’s Thane is expected to deliver its order on Thursday on the pre-arrest bail plea of two Railway engineers booked for culpable homicide in the Mumbra train accident that killed five persons in June. The accident occurred on June 9 between Diva and Mumbra stations in Thane district when two local trains — one headed to Kasara and the other towards Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus (CSMT) in Mumbai — were passing each other at a sharp curve (near the Mumbra station).(Praful Gangurde / HT Photo) Arguing before Additional Sessions Judge G T Pawar on Wednesday, Defence counsel Baldev Rajput termed the prosecution’s theory blaming the duo for the accident “completely baseless and misleading”. Earlier, the prosecution had highlighted that a Railway report cited a passenger’s bag as the cause, but “no bag was recovered during the ‘panchnama” (spot assessment).
