The Jharkhand High Court criticised the railway police for summoning a lawyer defending an accused. It said, “Summoning of advocate by investigating officer is disturbing,” and emphasised that client-lawyer communication is privileged under law.
The Mumbai sessions court denied bail to shooter Vicky Gupta, linked to the April shooting at Salman Khan’s residence. The court ruled the Maharashtra Control of Organised Crime Act (MCOCA) applies due to organized crime involvement. Prosecutors argued Gupta’s actions were part of a broader conspiracy. Defense claimed he was manipulated and lacked criminal intent.
