Defamation case: Rahul Gandhi briefly taken into custody, granted bail ..

-

 


Congress leader Rahul Gandhi was on Tuesday acquitted by the Sultanpur court in the 2018 case filed by BJP leader Vijay Mishra regarding his comments against Chief Minister Amit Shah's bail. The court detained him for 30 to 45 minutes, his lawyer said.

Rahul's lawyer said about Santosh Pandey: "He (Rahul Gandhi) was produced in the court today. He was stopped and the court kept him in custody for 30 to 45 minutes. After that the bail application was submitted and accepted (by the court)... The further date has not been given yet. His lawyer said that he is innocent and he has not made any defamatory statement...”.

Pandey further said that Rahul Gandhi could be given a maximum punishment of 2 years if sufficient evidence was found against him. Rahul was granted bail by Judge Yogesh Yadav after filling bail bonds.

The defamation case was filed against Congress leader Rahul Gandhi for allegedly making objectionable comments against Shah at a press conference in Bengaluru on May 8 that year. Amit Shah was the president of the Bharatiya Janata Party when Gandhi said these words. Rahul Gandhi attacked the Bharatiya Janata Party, saying the party claimed to believe in justice and cleanliness but the party president was a "suspect" in the murder case.

' World's biggest outside jail' Beginning around 2007, Israel has forced an air, land and ocean bar on the Gaza Strip, saying the move is important to protect the country from Hamas' assaults. Gaza is encircled by substantial walls and security barriers. Palestinians are di...

Israel says Rafah is Hamas' last stronghold in the Gaza Strip. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has vowed to continue the long-running offensive against the southern Gaza town of Rafah, regardless of Hamas' response to calls for a new ceasefire and the return of Israeli hostages. Hopes for an end to the conflict have risen in recent days, with Egypt once again calling for the resumption of negotiations between Israel and Hamas. But so far there is little agreement between the two sides on the most important differences.
