The Supreme Court on Tuesday granted interim bail to jailed self-styled godman Asaram in a 2013 rape case on medical grounds till March 31.

The top court said 86-year-old Asaram was suffering from various age-related health conditions besides a heart ailment.
The top court had sought Gujarat government's response on Asaram's plea for suspension of life sentence awarded to him by a Gandhinagar court in 2023.
The SC said it would only examine the issue on medical grounds.
On August 29, 2024, the Gujarat High Court rejected Asaram's plea seeking the suspension and found no case to grant him the reprieve.
The trial court in January, 2023, convicted Asaram in the 2013 case, filed by a woman who lived in his ashram near Gandhinagar when the alleged crime took place.

The accused &ndash; Kota-based doctor Kapil Bhola and Delhi resident Vishal Khanna &ndash; have been devotees of Asaram for a long time.
According to the police, the duo complained to the lawyers that despite multiple hearings over several years, they &ldquo;were not able to bring justice&rdquo; to Asaram&rdquo;.
Devendra Deora, SHO, Kudi Bhagtasni police station said that two devotees have been arrested and an investigation has been initiated to ascertain the reason behind the assault.
Rajasthan High Court Advocates' Association president Ratnaram Tholiya said that the Advocates' Protection Bill, which is pending with the government, needs to be immediately implemented.
Anand Purohit, president of the Rajasthan High Court Lawyers' Association questioned the entry of the &ldquo;unauthorised persons&rdquo; in the court premises.
Asaram's supporters visiting him during court appearances and hospital visits is not an uncommon occurrence.

According to ETimes report, Asaram&rsquo;s lawyers have claimed that the film is &lsquo;highly objectionable&rdquo; and &lsquo;defamatory&rsquo; towards their client. They further said that the film has the potential to &lsquo;tarnish his reputation and hit sentiments of his devotees.&rsquo;

A court in Gujarat's Gandhinagar on Monday convicted self-styled godman Asaram in a woman disciple rape case registered against him in 2013.
Sessions court judge DK Soni reserved its order on the quantum of sentence for Tuesday (January 31).
The court acquitted six other accused, including Asaram's wife, due to the lack of evidence.
As per the FIR lodged at Chandkheda police station in Ahmedabad, Asaram allegedly raped the woman on several occasions from 2001 to 2006 when she was living at his ashram on the outskirts of the city.
"The court has accepted the prosecution case and convicted Asaram under sections 376 2(C) (rape), 377 (unnatural offences) and other provisions of the Indian Penal Code for illegal detention, among others," special public prosecutor RC Kodekar said on Monday.
The controversial godman is currently lodged in jail in Jodhpur in another rape case.
A Surat-based woman had filed a case of rape and illegal confinement against Asaram Bapu and seven others, one of whom died during the pendency of the trial, in October 2013. A chargesheet was filed in July 2014.&nbsp;
