A Delhi Court denied bail to four co-owners of the coaching centre where three civil services aspirants drowned in July.

Principal District and Sessions Judge Anju Bajaj Chandna denied bail to the co-owners of the coaching centre--Parvinder Singh, Tajinder Singh, Harvinder Singh and Sarbjit Singh--in Old Rajindra Nagar saying the investigation is still in the initial stage in the case. "Investigation is at initial stage. I am not inclined to give bail,” PTI reported.

The Delhi High Court recently transferred the probe into the deaths of the civil services aspirants to the Central Bureau Investigation to ensure the public has no doubt over the investigation.

Three students died after the basement of an IAS coaching centre in Delhi's Old Rajindra Nagar got flooded on Saturday evening. The bodies of the students were retrieved from the site during the rescue operation. The bodies of two female students were retrieved from the site initially by the NDRF, local police and fire department. A third body was recovered later. Police said the deceased were from Kerala, Telangana and Uttar Pradesh.

The deceased were identified as Shreya Yadav, a native of Ambedkar Nagar district of UP, Tanya Soni, whose permanent address is in Telangana and Nivin Dalwin, a resident of Kerala's Ernakulam.
