The Bombay High Court denied bail to the accused who allegedly raped an 80-year-old woman. Considering the case’s details, Justice Karnik urged the trial court to expedite the case’s proceedings. The accused, arrested on July 12, 2020, claimed in his bail application that he had been falsely implicated. The government lawyer, Rutuja Ambekar, vehemently opposed the accused’s bail application. After hearing arguments from both sides, Justice Karnik rejected the bail application.
