Navlakha gets Elgar bail but order stayed to allow NIA appeal

Tuesday, 19 December 2023
Bombay HC on Tuesday granted bail to activist Gautam Navlakha, 73, in the 2018 Pune Elgar Parishad case, making him the seventh accused to get relief. Of the six granted bail so far, the last one, Mahesh Raut, a forest rights activist, is still behind bars in Taloja jail. Supreme Court had stayed the HC order on his bail. A bench of Justices Ajay Gadkari and S G Dige pronounced the order for Navlakha on Tuesday but stayed it for three weeks on a request by NIA counsel Sandesh Patil. NIA intends to approach Supreme Court against the order.
