Kamat : This cannot be permitted. I just want to submit one judgment.

Salve : Oh god..,

#ArnabGoswamy
#BombayHighCourt
Kamat : When a litigant comes to the court, there has to be some responsibility.

Salve interrupts.

Kamat : Just two more minutes and I am done my lords.

#ArnabGoswamy
#BombayHighCourt
Kamat refers to a judgment. There has to be some responsibility while making allegations.

"This is not a TV studio. This is Constitutional Court" - Kamat.

#ArnabGoswamy
#BombayHighCourt
Salve : We are seeing great responsibility when the Police Commissioner is giving press conferences.

#ArnabGoswamy
#BombayHighCourt
#HarishSalve : Desai has cited a case which reminds us that when a person great injustice, technicalities cannot come in way. My petition raises issues of violations of Article 21 and 19(1)(a).

#ArnabGoswamy
#BombayHighCourt
#HarishSalve : What Mr.Gupte argued today is irrelevant today, with due respect. He may also have to explain what he has been doing for two years.

#ArnabGoswamy
#BombayHighCourt
#HarishSalve : Can the Court grant relief? Yes, as per the case referred by Mr. Desai.

Harish Salve refers to the Jagisha Arora's habeas case where the Supreme Court ordered the release of Prashant Kanojia from custody last year. https://www.livelaw.in/top-stories/prashant-kanojia-arrest-up-police-released-sc-145562

Haris Salve : The very same argument that habeas was not maintainable was raised there. The Supreme Court did not accept it and ordered the relaese of Prashant Kanojia who was remanded to custody.

#ArnabGoswami
#BombayHighCourt
Harish Salve : If the question to be asked is if the Court has power, the answer is yes. The writ petition is based on a case of "malice in fact" by the State.

#ArnabGoswami
#BombayHighCourt
Harish Salve : If under Article 32 bail can be granted, bail can be granted under Article 226.
#ArnabGoswami
#BombayHighCourt
Harish Salve : Mr Gupte's client (Naik family) will have to explain what they were doing between April 2019 and now.

Also, the death of the mother of Anvay Naik is a bit of a question mark.

#ArnabGoswami
#BombayHighCourt
Harish Salve : For abetment to suicide, I showed judgment. Of course, they were post-conviction judgments. But the principle of law remains.
#ArnabGoswami
#BombayHighCourt
Harish Salve : Alternate remedies do not exclude the jurisdiction of this court.

This is a fit case for ad-interim bail.

Salve concludes.

#ArnabGoswami
#BombayHighCourt
Abad Ponda says that order of State Government says "re-investigation". Govt has no power to order reinvestigation. Only the Court can order re-investigation.

#ArnabGoswami
#BombayHighCourt
Harish Salve : Please grant ad-interim bail. If your lordship is not granting bail, pass an order stating that.

#ArnabGoswami
#BombayHighCourt
J Shinde : We can't pass order today. It is already six. Meanwhile we will clarify that pendency of the petition will not bar the petitioner from approaching the sessions court for bail and if such an application is filed, it should be decided within 4 days.

#BombayHighCourt
Harish Salve : I am praying for ad-interim order. If your lordship is not inclined, lordship is not inclined.

#ArnabGoswami
#BombayHighCourt
Justice Shinde indicates that the Court will reserve orders and will pronounce them some day in coming week.

#ArnabGoswami
#BombayHighCourt
Justice Shinde says that the court will pronounce the order as early as possible.

#ArnabGoswami
#BombayHighCourt
Justice Shinde says that the Court will clarify that the pendency of the case is not an impediment for the petitioners to apply for bail before sessions court.

#ArnabGoswami
#BombayHighCourt
Desai : Salve sought to argue malice. Ground of malice is not in the interim application.

#ArnabGoswami
#BombayHighCourt
Bombay HC reserves for orders the petitions of #ArnabGoswami and other accused for interim release.
