Mumbai Police arrested Republic TV chief in May 2018 in connection with the suicide of architect Anvay Nayak and his mother. Arnab Goswami has approached the Bombay High Court seeking interim bail. The public prosecutor, Mumbai police, objected that Arnab Goswami should not be granted bail as the case was under investigation and there was a possibility of tampering with his reputation.
No bail for Arnab was argued in the Bombay High Court on Monday. After hearing the arguments, the Bombay High Court refused to grant bail to Arnab Goswami. The Bombay High Court has made it clear that interim orders cannot be issued to the police under the present circumstances. Arnab Goswami was shocked when the Bombay High Court rejected his bail petition.
The Bombay High Court directed Arnab Goswami to file a petition for bail in the Alibag Sessions Court four days before the time to approach the High Court. However, Republic TV editor-in-chief Arnab Goswami has already filed a petition in the Alibag Sessions Court seeking bail. The Bombay High Court directed the Alibag Sessions Court to decide on the bail petition within four days.
