‘Much water has flown since 2020, shouldn’t be a proxy war’: HC on Arnab Goswami’s plea against abetment to suicide case
The Bombay High Court heard a plea by Republic TV editor-in-chief Arnab Goswami on Friday, regarding a case of alleged abetment to suicide involving an interior designer. The Court remarked that the proceedings should not become a "proxy kind of a war" and that parties should consider the case with a "different perspective" as "much water has flown since 2020".
State lawyer Niranjan Mundargi argued that the probe was reopened by the state government in 2020 for reasons of "vendetta and personal animosity" against Goswami. The judge emphasized that the government has the power to re-open the case, but urged the lawyers and the Court to look at the matter from a fresh perspective in light of the time that has passed since the case was first reopened in 2020.
