Pawan Khera’s Pre-Arrest Bail Plea: HC Holds Order for Today
Telangana High Court Hearing
The Telangana High Court reserved its decision on the anticipatory bail plea filed by Congress leader Pawan Khera on Thursday. The case relates to allegations made by Khera against Riniki Bhuyan Sharma, the wife of Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma.
The proceedings were overseen by Justice K Sujana, who has scheduled the issuance of the order for Friday after hearing arguments from both parties involved in the case.
Khera’s Arguments
Senior counsel Abhishek Manu Singhvi represented Khera in a virtual appearance, asserting that the legal action against his client was “politically motivated, vindictive, and malafide.” Singhvi contended that the first information report (FIR) filed against Khera included “every imaginable offense” as part of an effort to “harass” him.
Singhvi highlighted comments made by Himanta Biswa Sarma, which he described as abusive, and pointed out that the dispatch of over 100 police officers from Assam to Khera’s residence in Delhi indicated attempts to “silence and intimidate” him.
Opposition from Assam’s Advocate General
In contrast, Devajit Saikia, the advocate general for Assam, opposed Khera’s bail plea. Saikia argued that the issues at hand extended beyond mere defamation claims and suggested that the case involved a more extensive conspiracy that necessitated an in-depth investigation.
Saikia’s response highlighted the complexities of the matter and suggested that it warranted careful legal scrutiny, emphasizing the seriousness of the allegations against Khera.
