SC on November 11 ordered release of Republic TV’s editor-in-chief Arnab Goswami & other co-accused on interim bail on a bond of Rs 50,000 each in an abetment to suicide case. Saying that the HC erred in rejecting the application for grant of interim bail to Goswami, the top court said HCs were not doing enough in matters where personal liberty is denied. Goswami and two others, Feroze Shaikh and Nitish Sarda, were arrested on November 4 and sent to judicial custody. Justice Chandrachud asked senior advocate Kapil Sibal, appearing for Maharashtra, if there was any active encouragement or instigation in the case to constitute an offence of abetment to suicide. “Otherwise look at the drastic consequences. We are dealing with personal liberty,” said Justice Chandrachud. He added that India’s democracy is extraordinarily resilient and Maharashtra government must ignore all this (Arnab’s taunts on TV). Appearing before the court for Goswami, advocate Harish Salve said that Maharashtra Police seeking custodial interrogation of Goswami was nothing but a smokescreen to teach him a lesson.
