 SHILLONG: The Shillong bench of Gauhati High Court on Monday rejected interim bail plea of a youth accused in raping of a minor at Mawlaingut village in East Khasi Hills district.

Justice T Vaiphei, while denying the anticipatory bail application of Shabarli Mawlong (28), also directed him to surrender before police.

Mawlong had been on the run since he had allegedly raped a 14-year-old relative on June 9.

Mawlong, who had earlier secured a one-month interim bail from the District Council Court in this connection, had failed to convince the Court after police presented strong evidence against him.

When contacted, East Khasi Hills Superintendent of Police M Kharkrang said the bail application of the accused was cancelled by the High Court recently. However, no arrest has been made since the accused is still absconding.
