Social media influencer Jyoti Malhotra seeks bail amid espionage charges. Her connection with Pakistani intelligence operatives is under investigation. The court awaits further developments.

Jyoti Malhotra Espionage Bail Plea

Influencer Jyoti Malhotra seeks bail amid espionage allegations. Although not directly tied to military secrets, her interactions with Pakistani operatives are under court review.

Jyoti Malhotra, a social media influencer, seeks bail following espionage allegations. Not directly linked to military secrets, her communications with Pakistani operatives are under scrutiny. The court awaits police input by June 11.

Social media influencer Jyoti Malhotra, arrested on suspicion of espionage last month, on Tuesday sought regular bail from a local court, her lawyer said.
Malhotra moved a regular bail plea before Judicial Magistrate (First Class) Sunil Kumar through her lawyer Kumar Mukesh.
The court sought a reply from the police by June 11, he added.
On June 9, the court extended Malhotra's judicial custody and fixed her case's hearing on June 23.
The 33-year-old YouTuber had appeared before the court through video-conferencing.
Hisar Police arrested Malhotra on suspicion of espionage on May 16 and she was subsequently remanded to five days of police custody by the court.
Following the completion of the remand, the court extended the custody by four more days after the police sought to question her further.
On May 26, the court remanded her to judicial custody for 14 days.
Malhotra, who hails from the city, ran a YouTube channel "Travel with JO".
She was arrested at the New Aggarsain Extension and booked under provisions of the Official Secrets Act and the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita.
Hisar Police previously said no evidence had emerged to indicate Malhotra had access to any military- or defence-related information but claimed she was in contact with some people, aware that they were Pakistani Intelligence Operatives (PIO).
Police sources had previously said she was in touch with Ehsan-ur-Rahim alias Danish, a staffer at the Pakistani High Commission, since November 2023.
India expelled Danish on May 13 for allegedly indulging in espionage.
The police have claimed Pakistani intelligence operatives were developing Malhotra as an asset.

Ajaz Khan's anticipatory bail plea is denied by Mumbai court in a rape case, emphasizing serious charges and need for investigation.

Ajaz Khan Bail Denied in Rape Case

Ajaz Khan's anticipatory bail denied in a rape case by a Mumbai court, citing serious charges and need for further investigation.

Mumbai Court denies anticipatory bail to Ajaz Khan in rape case

Ajaz Khan's anticipatory bail denied in rape case. Court notes serious allegations and need for evidence collection.

A Mumbai court has refused anticipatory bail to actor Ajaz Khan in a rape case.
Additional sessions judge (Dindoshi court) Datta Dhoble on Thursday denied relief to Khan, ruling that "considering the nature and gravity of the allegations, there is need for custodial interrogation of the applicant".
The prosecution has alleged that the victim, also an actor, was induced into a relationship by Khan. He allegedly misused his position as a celebrity and host of a reality show to gain the victim's confidence, the prosecution said.
The FIR alleged that on the false pretext of marriage, promises of financial help and professional advancement, Khan established physical relations with the victim on multiple occasions "without her free and unequivocal consent".
Khan has been booked under relevant provisions of Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita sections concerning rape and physical relationship obtained through deceitful means.
Pressing for anticipatory bail, Khan's advocate submitted that his client has been falsely implicated in the case.
"The informant (victim) was well aware that the actor was already married. Both are majors. That the relationship between him and the informant was consensual," he submitted.
The defence placed before court certain WhatsApp chats and audio recordings purportedly showing that the victim demanded money to withdraw the case and that the physical relationship was consensual.
The prosecution, on the other hand, contended that Khan's custodial interrogation was necessary for recovery of his mobile phone, verification of WhatsApp chats and call recording.
It submitted that the applicant has a prior criminal record and he may tamper with evidence or influence the victim and witnesses if granted anticipatory bail.
The court after hearing both the sides noted that the FIR discloses specific dates, locations and circumstances under which the incident occurred, including the assurances allegedly given by the applicant, not just of marriage, but also professional help and financial assistance for the victim's family.
"Prima facie, this cannot be brushed aside as a simple case of consensual relationship. The consent appears to be obtained by fraud or under misrepresentation of facts," the court noted.
Though the victim is a major but considering allegations it appears that consent is not free and unequivocally within the meaning of law, it said.
The court held that Khan's custodial interrogation was necessary for his medical examination and "collection of other digital evidence".
"The risk of tampering with evidence or influencing witnesses cannot be ruled out, if the pre-arrest bail is granted," the court said while rejecting his plea.
Earlier, Khan was named in a case along with many others for alleged obscene content in their web show 'House Arrest', which is streamed on Ullu app.

The Rajasthan High Court has denied interim bail for Asaram, seeking more documentation. Allegations of breached bail conditions and medical needs are focal points as the legal process continues.

Rajasthan High Court Denies Bail to Asaram

Rajasthan High Court denies Asaram interim bail, requesting additional documents amid claims of breached bail conditions. Further legal proceedings are anticipated, focusing on the validity of past bail adherence and medical justifications.

The Rajasthan High Court has denied interim bail for Asaram

Rajasthan High Court denies Asaram interim bail. Legal team asked to counter claims of breached conditions while on previous bail. His medical needs scrutinized as future hearings continue.

The Rajasthan High Court refused to grant interim bail to Asaram, who is currently serving a life sentence in a rape case. The court instructed his lawyer to file an affidavit addressing the alleged violation of bail conditions at the next hearing scheduled for April 7.
During the hearing, which lasted around 30 minutes, the government advocate argued against granting interim bail, claiming Asaram had violated the Supreme Court's conditions by preaching while on bail. Asaram&rsquo;s counsel, however, denied these allegations.
The court has also requested details about Asaram&rsquo;s medical treatment received during his previous interim bail and questioned the necessity for such care moving forward.
Asaram returned to Jodhpur Central Jail on April 1 at 1:30 PM after his bail period expired, only to be transferred to a private hospital later that night. No official explanation has been provided for his hospitalization.
Previously, Asaram was granted three months of interim bail by the Gujarat High Court. Despite this, he remains in custody as the Rajasthan High Court has not provided similar relief.
On Tuesday, after the reopening of the Rajasthan High Court, Asaram's lawyer, Nishant Bora, appealed for an urgent hearing of his bail application, leading to Wednesday&rsquo;s court session.
The court also requested affidavits from both Asaram and the victim concerning his bail application. The victim's lawyer opposed further bail, citing past violations of court conditions.
The case was heard by a division bench of Justice Dinesh Mehta and Justice Vineet Kumar Mathur. They specifically questioned whether Asaram had breached the Supreme Court&rsquo;s conditions by delivering sermons. Asaram&rsquo;s legal team was directed to provide an affidavit to address these accusations.
The Supreme Court initially granted interim bail on January 14, extended by the Jodhpur High Court until March 31.
Although the Gujarat High Court extended interim bail for three months concerning a case in Surat, Asaram remains incarcerated due to the pending Rajasthan case.
Asaram was convicted in two major sexual assault cases: the Jodhpur case in 2013, for raping a minor girl, and the more recent Gujarat case in Gandhinagar for repeated sexual assault, each resulting in life imprisonment.

"The order is operable till June 2. There are no restrictions on what he can say or not say in his election campaigning. We will try for his release today itself," &nbsp;Supreme Court lawyer Shadan Farasat representing Arvind Kejriwal told ANI news agency.
A bench comprising Justices Sanjiv Khanna and Dipankar Datta had reserved its verdict on Kejriwal's interim bail on May 7.

Karnataka: citing slow pace of trial, accused in journalist murder case granted bail

'Though charges were framed in the present case on 30.10.2021, for the last more than two years, only 90 witnesses have been examined. There are more than 400 charge sheet witnesses who are yet to be examined in the case,' HC said citing delay in trial

Mohan Nayak N, the 11th accused in the murder of journalist Gauri Lankesh, has been granted bail by the High Court of Karnataka.
The allegation against Nayak was that "he had conspired with the other accused persons to commit the murder of deceased Gauri Lankesh and in furtherance of such conspiracy, he had taken a house for rent at Ramanagara in an isolated place and had given shelter in the said house to accused number 2 &amp; 3 who are the actual assailants in the present case."
He is the first accused in the case to obtain bail, which was granted by the single judge bench of Justice S Vishwajith Shetty.
One of the grounds on which Nayak was granted bail was the delay in the trial.
"In the present case, out of 527 charge sheet witnesses, only 90 witnesses have been examined. This Court on 11.02.2019 directed the Trial Court to expedite the trial. Though charges were framed in the present case on 30.10.2021, for the last more than two years, only 90 witnesses have been examined. There are more than 400 charge sheet witnesses who are yet to be examined in the case.
Even if it is assumed that all the witnesses mentioned in the charge sheet may not be examined in the case, considering the fact that only 90 witnesses have been examined for the last more than two years, it can be safely presumed that any time soon, the trial of the case may not be completed," the HC said in its judgement.
Nayak is in custody since July 18, 2018.
Gauri was murdered outside her residence in Bengaluru on September 5, 2017 by bike-borne men. The police arrested a total of 17 men in connection with the case and claim that Gauri's murder was connected to the murder of Kannada writer M M Kalburgi and those of Govind Pansare and Narendra Dabholkar in Maharashtra.

 Taking note of the submission by the ASG, SC clarified that the HC judgment shall not be treated as a precedent in any other case.
 &lsquo;Having heard the ASG, at this stage the challenge to the impugned order in so far as grant of bail may not be required. However, the question of law raised is left open to be considered in an appropriate case and as such the judgement may not be treated as precedent in any other case,&rsquo; the bench said.

Anil Deshmukh gets bail; Bombay HC grants bail to Deshmukh

The Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) leader has been in jail since November last year after he was arrested by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) in a money laundering case.

The Bombay High Court on Monday granted bail to former Maharashtra home minister and NCP leader Anil Deshmukh in a corruption case being probed by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI).
Deshmukh, however, won't walk out of jail as the high court has kept the order in abeyance for ten days after the CBI sought time to challenge it in the Supreme Court.
A single bench of Justice M S Karnik allowed Deshmukh's bail plea after hearing arguments of both sides.
He is currently in judicial custody and lodged at the Arthur Road prison in Mumbai.
Deshmukh, 74, had approached the high court after a special CBI court rejected his bail plea last month. He sought bail both on medical grounds as well as on merits.

The Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) leader has been in jail since November last year after he was arrested by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) in a money laundering case.
In April this year, he was arrested by the CBI in the corruption case.
He was granted bail by the high court last month in the ED case.
Deshmukh's bail plea in the corruption case was, however, rejected by the special CBI court noting that there was prima facie evidence against him.
IPS officer Param Bir Singh had in March 2021 alleged that Deshmukh, then home minister, had given a target to police officers to collect Rs 100 crore per month from restaurants and bars in Mumbai.
The high court in April 2021 directed the CBI to carry out a Preliminary Enquiry against Deshmukh.
The CBI subsequently registered an FIR against Deshmukh and his associates for alleged corruption and misuse of official power.&nbsp;

Gujarat riots case: SC grants bail to activist Teesta Setalvad 
 

The top court also asked Setalvad to cooperate with the probe agency in investigation of alleged fabrication of evidence to frame people in riots cases.&nbsp;
&nbsp;

The Supreme Court granted interim bail to social rights activist Teesta Setalvad in connection with the case for allegedly fabricating evidence to frame "innocent people" in the 2002 Gujarat riots cases. Setalvad was arrested on June 25, 2022.&nbsp;
The order passed by the bench of Chief Justice Uday Umesh Lalit and justices S Ravindra Bhat and Sudhanshu Dhulia directed Setalvad to surrender her passport with trial court till the time the Gujarat High Court decides her regular bail plea.
The top court also asked Setalvad to cooperate with the probe agency in investigation of alleged fabrication of evidence to frame people in riots cases.&nbsp;
The apex court made it clear that the order has been made from the standpoint of interim bail till the Gujarat High Court decide her bail plea independently and uninfluenced by any observations made by the supreme court.
Earlier on 1 September 2022, the top Court asked the reason for the delayed listing of activist Teesta Setalvad's bail plea by the Gujarat High Court, and asked whether "this lady has been made an exception".&nbsp;
It wondered why the high court listed the bail prayer for hearing on September 19, six weeks after it sent a notice to the state government seeking a response to her application.

Forcibly kissing someone on the lips, and touching private parts are not unnatural offences under Section 377 of the Indian Penal Code. The Bombay High Court reportedly said this while granting bail to a man accused of sexually assaulting a 14-year-old boy.
The man was arrested last year after the boy's father filed a police complaint. The boy used to visit the accused man's shop in Mumbai for recharging an online game 'Ola Party', according to news agency PTI.
The boy claimed that one day when he visited the shop, he was forcibly kissed, and his private parts were touched. Subsequently, the man was booked under IPC Section 377, and some sections of the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences, or POCSO, Act.
IPC 377 pertains to "carnal intercourse against the order of nature with any man, woman, or animal". It carries a maximum penalty of life imprisonment.
Bombay High Court's Justice Anuja Prabhudessai said that the element of unnatural sex was not prima facie applicable. The judge also said that a medical test conducted on the boy did not support his statement of sexual assault.
