[Breaking] Activist Shantanu Muluk Granted 10 Days Transit Bail By Bombay High Court In Toolkit Case

"The only fact that is required to be considered as to whether the applicant can be granted liberty by way of transit bail to approach to the competent authority for seeking appropriate relief", the Court observed. Even the fact that Delhi police(which was seeking to arrest the applicant in Maharashtra) was not made a party in the bail application is not a ground to reject the application, the Court said.

"It is submitted that officers from Delhi Police are already in Beed. They will have to take help of local police for any operation to be conducted in the investigation at Beed. Under such circumstance, application cannot be rejected only on the ground 5 ABA_154_2021 that Delhi Police are not party to this application. The purpose of the bail application would itself get frustrated", the Court observed.
