Bombay High Court Turns Down Plea By 8 Bhima Koregaon Accused For Factual Corrections In Order Denying Bail

Live Law  

The Bombay High Court on Thursday refused a request by eight accused in the Bhima Koregaon – Elgar Parishad Case for substantial factual corrections to the HC's order denying them bail. The 8 accused - Sudhir Dhawale, Dr P Varavara Rao, Rona Wilson, Advocate Surendra Gadling, Professor Shoma Sen, Mahesh Raut, Vernon Gonsalves and Arun Ferreira -approached the High Court again claiming that they had in fact filed petitions seeking default bail and that the judgment is based on a "factual error". Bail Order In its detailed order granting default bail to Bharadwaj, the High Court said that Additional Sessions Judge of Pune KD Vadane was not authorized to extend the time for Pune Police to file the charge sheet or extend her further detention under the provisions of the UAPA on November 26, 2018. The High Court had however refused to accept the argument put forth by all the accused that because the Pune sessions court was not empowered to take cognizance of the charge sheet for scheduled offences, its consequence would entail no charge-sheet having been filed by the investigating agency on the given dates – November 15 and February 21 and therefore the accused are entitled to default bail.
