Today, On 23rd April, The Bombay High Court initiated police action against BJP MLAs Geeta Jain and Nitesh Rane for alleged hate speeches, following concerns raised by Mumbai residents. With growing scrutiny on public figure rhetoric, the Court directed police commissioners to personally review speech videos and transcripts to prevent potential violence and disturbance during upcoming elections and religious rallies.
The Bombay High Court Today questioned the Serious Fraud Investigation Office (SFIO) about the basis for downgrading a lookout circular against a woman linked to a 2019 fraud case. The court sought evidence of the legal provisions permitting this action. The matter has been adjourned for further deliberation. The SFIO must provide the lookout circular at the next hearing.
