Neeraj Grover case: Jerome's bail plea rejected

Mumbai: The Bombay High Court on Tuesday rejected Emile Jerome's bail plea in the Neeraj Grover murder case. The court on December 14 heard the bail plea of Jerome, who was convicted in the case.

In July this year, Jerome was sentenced to 10 years rigorous imprisonment for murdering executive Neeraj Grover, while the other convict, his ex-girlfriend and Kannada actress Maria Susairaj was let-off after serving a three-year sentence.

According to the prosecution, Neeraj Grover was stabbed to death by Jerome and Susairaj at her flat on May 7, 2008 following a fight.

The duo then allegedly chopped his body into pieces and disposed it off in a jungle on the outskirts of Mumbai.
