The judges' bench of the High Court has also upheld the decision of the High Court's Registrar to reject the appeal of the Criminal Court's release of Haleemath Lamha, a former Indira Gandhi Memorial Hospital (IGMH) nurse accused of murdering Filipino nurse Mary Grace Oned Pineda, who also worked at the same hospital.
