SC rejects Zaheera's plea on sentence

The Supreme Court on Monday rejected the plea of the Best Bakery case key witness Zaheera Sheikh.

She can file a petition seeking a review of the order, the apex court said.

Zaheera was seeking modification of the verdict sentencing her to one-year imprisonment and a fine of Rs 50,000 for contempt of court.

A Bench comprising Justice Arijit Pasayat and Justice HK Sema said there was no merit in the application.
