Defense seeks pretrial release for Virginia husband charged with killing, defiling, hiding missing wife

Naresh Bhatt, charged with first-degree murder and defiling a dead body in connection with his wife Mamta Kafle Bhatt's disappearance, will seek pretrial release in a bond hearing. Evidence including human hairs and blood on a power saw from their home has been presented, but Mamta's body remains unfound. Bhatt has been denied bond twice, with prosecutors citing flight risk and community danger.
