Bombay HC grants interim protection from arrest to Kirit Somaiya

The Hindu  

: The Bombay High Court on Wednesday granted interim protection from arrest to BJP leader Kirit Somaiya in an alleged case of misappropriation of funds to save INS Vikrant. He must report to the police station for four days from April 18 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Senior advocate Ashok Mundargi, appearing for Mr. Somaiya, said this was a highly politicised matter. Mr. Mundargi argued that there was a programme at the Churchgate railway station and a letter was sent to the Governor saying that ₹11,000 was collected to save INS Vikrant that was to be scrapped. A special court on April 11 rejected Mr Somaiya's anticipatory bail plea and held that there were pictures to show that he had collected money in the name of the ship; there was a letter that stated that he was going to deposit the money with the Governor.
