SC to hear Arnab Goswami’s plea challenging Bombay HC order today

The Supreme Court on Wednesday will hear Republic TV editor-in-chief Arnab Goswami’s appeal challenging the Bombay High Court order which refused to grant him interim bail in the 2018 abetment to suicide case.

Goswami, in his petition to the top court, said that the balance of convenience is also in favour of the petitioner (Arnab Goswami) and he would suffer irreparable harm and injury if the operation of the Bombay High Court’ November 9, order is not stayed during the pendency of the present petition.

He stated that his arrest and “illegal” detention is in violation of his right to life and personal liberty guaranteed under Article 21 of the Constitution of India, 1950.
