During the hearing, Public Prosecutor Pradeep Gharat told the court that there is strong evidence against the accused, especially the 48 injuries found on the body of the deceased as per postmortem report is enough to establish his active role and intention. Advocate Rizwan Merchant and Trivan Kumar Karnani who appeared as intervener in the case also opposed the bail application.”

“It is a watertight case and the application for bail is unmeritorious. Moreover, the postmortem report showing 48 serious injuries couldn’t be justified by the defence (Jogdhankar). We narrated the facts and circumstances as per the reading of the charge sheet that corroborates the prosecution case before, during and after the commission of offence backed by strong evidence,” Karnani said. After hearing both the sides, the court rejected the bail application and the detailed order is still awaited.
