Justice delayed, but happy: Siddique Kappan’s wife on grant of bail to him

Malappuram : The wife of Kerala-based journalist Siddique Kappan on Friday welcomed the bail granted to him in a money laundering case, but said it was “justice delayed”.
“Justice delayed, but I am happy. I am happy he has got bail. I am unhappy with the fact that it took so long,” Raihanath Kappan told the media at her residence in Vengara in Malappuram district.
The Allahabad High Court granted bail to Kappan in the money laundering case today.
His wife said that bail order was not yet available so she did not know what the conditions were except that two persons have to be found to stand as sureties.
She said that she returned from Lucknow in Uttar Pradesh two day ago.
Kappan, currently lodged in the Lucknow district jail, was arrested two years back while he was on his way to Hathras in Uttar Pradesh, where a Dalit woman had died after allegedly being raped.
