Mumbai: Superior Bombay Court Monday declined Early bail still SATARAR SESSION COURT The judge accused of looking for a bribe of a bail applicant in a trap case.
The session judge, Dhananjay NikamHC requested on December 31, 2024 through its Viesh Purwant defender. The main lawyer Ashok Mundargi presented him before him before Judge Nr Borkar and sought relief, while the additional public prosecutor Veera Shinde opposed the plea. HC’s reasoned order will be available later.
On January 15, Judge Borkar had noticed the claim of the prosecutor’s office that the plaintiff sat in the judge’s car and the two allegedly had an incriminating conversation on the way to a bank. The session judge described all accusations as false and argued that there was nothing to link it to any accusation of demand or acceptance of money.
Mundargi said that a supplication was made to provide images of the CCTV Chamber since December 9, 2024, but the bank expressed its inability to provide it without a court order, citing “confidentiality rules.” HC had directed the bank in Jan to deliver the images in a week.
Purwant said they will study the order and decide the next course of action.
