Notably, arguments in the case concluded on Monday and the case is now posted on Wednesday for the counsel of Vismay to produce the bail bonds on record
The Gujarat High Court on Monday reserved its judgment in the bail plea filed by BMC hit-and-run convict Vismay Shah in a prohibition case registered against him after he was found in an inebriated condition from a liquor party at a farmhouse in Adalaj on December 26, 2018.
Notably, arguments in the case concluded on Monday and the case is now posted on Wednesday for the counsel of Vismay to produce the bail bonds on record.
While the state government has vehemently opposed the bail plea of Vismay after citing his criminal antecedents and his conviction in the hit-and-run case, an appeal against which is pending, the latter's counsel submitted that the offences against which Vismay has been booked are bailable. Vismay has also sought bail on the ground of parity as five others, including his wife, who was arrested for the same offence, have been granted bail by the court.
The court had earlier refused to grant bail to Vismay seeking details of his criminal antecedents. However, as an interim relief, it had given him temporary bail which has been continued from time-to-time. The state in its reply filed in the case had earlier submitted that there are two cases registered against Vismay—one is the hit-and-run case and another for driving under the influence of alcohol.
The senior counsels, appearing for the accused, had earlier argued that the state government is drawing a sadistic pleasure in the case and in consumption matters, invariably bail is granted. The advocates had then submitted that the accused are not charged with bootlegging and the sections levelled are not grave in nature.
NOT ENOUGH TO CONVINCE MY LORD!
