Mumbai's sessions court has denied bail to 33-year-old lawyer Hiral Jadhav, who is charged with forging a court order in a murder case. Jadhav was arrested last year on a complaint from a relative of the accused murder suspect, who alleged that Jadhav had promised to secure his release from jail in exchange for a fee of Rs 65,000.
Jadhav submitted a bail plea on August 28, 2022, claiming that the Dindoshi court had granted her husband bail for Rs 25,000. However, when the complainant and Jadhav met at the High Court to deliver the money and take the papers, they were told that the documents were incomplete. When Jadhav followed up with the complainant, she provided another order and papers, which were also rejected.
The court rejected Jadhav's second bail plea, stating that there was no intentional delay in the prosecution's trial and that releasing her on bail would allow her to tamper with the evidence of remaining prosecution witnesses.
