The Bombay High Court has allowed Elgar Parishad accused Gautam Navlakha to shift from Mumbai to his Delhi residence while making it clear that he must attend trial proceedings whenever required.
The Court imposed strict conditions, including weekly police reporting, surrender of passport, and prior permission to leave Delhi.
The Bombay High Court said there is “no harm” in allowing Elgar Parishad accused Gautam Navlakha to shift to his Delhi residence till the trial starts, noting he is not a flight risk. The court observed that forcing the 73-year-old to stay in Mumbai despite having a home in Delhi was unjustified.
The Bombay High Court told Elgaar Parishad accused Anand Teltumbde that he could “give a lecture through video conferencing” while refusing to permit his foreign travel. Teltumbde later withdrew his plea after the court showed disinclination to grant relief.
