For the unversed, Arnab Goswami was arrested for the alleged abetment to suicide of an interior designer in 2018. Earlier the Bombay High Court refused to give relief by denying him any interim bail. They believed that the rights of the victim are as important as the rights of the accused.
Meanwhile, during the hearing, the apex court also questioned the Maharashtra government and said that it would be unfair to the one seeking justice if the personal liberty of a person is curtailed like this. The bench observed that Indian Democracy is extraordinarily resilient, and the Maharashtra government must ignore all Arnab’s taunts on TV.
