New Delhi, March 10 -- In a setback to jailed Jammu and Kashmir MP Engineer Rashid, a Delhi court on Monday rejected the plea seeking custody parole to attend the upcoming Parliament session.

Additional sessions judge Chander Jit Singh dismissed the plea and posted the order on Rashid's regular bail plea on March 19.

On March 3, the court asked the NIA to respond to the plea, following which it reserved its verdict after hearing the arguments.
