Besides Arnab Goswami, Neetish Sarda and Feroz Mohammad Shaikh are also accused of abetting the suicide of Anvay Naik and his mother in 2018.
Republic TV Editor-in-Chief Arnab Goswami is into more trouble, as the Maharashtra government will soon file the chargesheet against him in the Anvay Naik suicide case.
Maharashtra Home Minister Anil Deshmukh on Saturday said a charge sheet will soon be filed in the architect-interior designer Anvay Naik suicide case, in which journalist Arnab Goswami is an accused.
Besides Goswami, two others are also accused of abetting the suicide of Anvay Naik and his mother in 2018.
'It is only after getting permission from the court, the investigation into the Anvay Naik suicide case, in which Arnab Goswami is an accused, is currently going on. Very soon a charge sheet will be filed in this case,' Deshmukh told reporters here.
The statement from Maharashtra Home Minister came a day after the Supreme Court extended the interim bail of Goswami and two others for four weeks, stating that the judiciary should ensure that 'criminal law does not become a weapon for selective harassment.'
It also said that prima facie evaluation of the FIR against Goswami and two others did not establish the ingredients of the offence of abetment to suicide.
Goswami, Neetish Sarda and Feroz Mohammad Shaikh were arrested by Alibaug police in Maharashtra's Raigad district on November 4 in connection with the case. Goswami walked out of Taloja jail on November 11 after the apex court granted him interim bail.
Details of Anvay Naik suicide case
The case concerns the death of Anvay Naik, managing director of Concorde Designs Private Limited, in 2018. A suicide note by Naik accused Goswami and two others - Feroz Shaikh and Neetish Sarda of not paying dues worth Rs 5.40 crore. Naik and his mother Kumud Naik were found dead in their home in Kavir village of Alibaug.
Anvay was found hanging on the first floor, while Kumud’s body was found by the police on the ground floor. During the probe in this case, it was found by police that Anvay was in heavy debt and was finding it very tough to repay money to contractors.
Neetish Sarda is an industrialist originally from Kolkata.
