India TodayThe Bombay High Court has reserved its judgment on the bail plea of former Maharashtra home minister Anil Deshmukh. Referring to Deshmukh’s move to head to the Supreme Court every time there was a delay in the hearing of his bail plea, Justice NJ Jamadar told Deshmukh’s lawyer Vikram Chaudhari that the plea could have been mentioned in Bombay High Court for an early hearing. The intention was to get interim bail.” Additional Solicitor General Anil Singh, arguing against the bail application of Deshmukh, submitted that the administrative order was passed on September 12 assigning Deshmukh’s bail plea to Justice Jamadar’s bench. Singh argued against Deshmukh’s bail plea for over four hours when he pointed to the two main accusations against Deshmukh: One, asking dismissed Mumbai police officer Sachin Waze to extort money from bars and restaurants across Mumbai.
