NIA court orders Bharadwaj’s release on ₹50,000 cash surety

Hindustan Times  

A special National Investigation Agency court in Mumbai on Wednesday ordered activist Sudha Bharadwaj, an accused in the 2018 Bhima Koregaon case, be released from jail after furnishing a surety amount of ₹50,000. Bharadwaj, who was arrested in 2018, is currently at the Byculla women’s prison in Mumbai The development came a day after the Supreme Court dismissed the NIA’s petition against the bail granted by the Bombay high court to Bharadwaj, who is facing charges under the Unlawful Activities Prevention Act for allegedly participating in a purported Maoist conspiracy to trigger violence on January 1, 2018, in Maharashtra’s Bhima Koregaon village. On December 1, the Bombay HC allowed default bail to Bharadwaj, underlining that a Pune sessions judge, who granted police a 90-day extension on November 26, 2018, to file the charge sheet, did not have jurisdiction to do so as only a special NIA court could hear UAPA cases. On Tuesday, an apex court bench, headed by justice Uday U Lalit, held that there was no infirmity in the December 1 high court order granting default bail on account of the legal lacuna in investigating agency’s seeking time beyond 90 days in filing a charge sheet in the case.
