Supreme Court Orders Release Of Arnab Goswami On Bail

 Supreme Court orders release of Arnab Goswami on interim bail: Arnab Goswami Case. The Supreme Court orders the release of Arnab Goswami, Editor-in-Chief of Republic TV, and other co-accused on interim bail.

A division bench headed by Justice Chandrachud said that Arnab Goswami and two other accused should be released on interim bail on a bond of Rs 50,000.

The Supreme Court has directed the Police Commissioner to ensure compliance with the order immediately. The Supreme Court held that the High Court’s refusal to seek interim bail was wrong.

Hearing the interim bail plea, the Supreme Court had made strict remarks that if the state governments target individuals, they should know that there is a top court to protect the liberty of citizens.

The court asked the Maharashtra government to ignore all this (Tanno on Arnab’s TV).

The Supreme Court says that our democracy is exceptionally resilient, the Maharashtra government should ignore all this (Arnab’s taunts on TV).

Meanwhile, on behalf of the court Arnab Goswami, senior advocate Harish Salve has demanded the CBI  investigate the matter.

He said that if a person commits suicide in Maharashtra and blames the government, will the Chief Minister be arrested?

During the hearing, Justice Chandrachud said, ‘If we as a Constitutional Court do not protect personal liberty, then who will.

If a state intentionally targets a person, a strong message needs to be given. Our democracy is exceptionally flexible.

Arnab had challenged the Bombay High Court’s denial of bail in the Supreme Court.

The Bombay High Court had refused to grant interim bail to Arnab and two others in the case for allegedly abetting interior designer Anvay Naik to go to the local court for relief.

During the debate on Arnab’s bail plea, Harish Salve said that the powers of the state were being misused, ignoring malice and facts. An FIR was registered in this case in May 2018. The powers are being misused to double-check.
