Bhima Koregaon: Varavara granted bail on medical grounds

Mumbai, Feb 22 (UNI) Bombay High Court on Monday granted bail on medical grounds to 82-year-old poet-activist Varavara Rao, who is accused in Bhima Koregaon violence and lodged in Taloja Central Jail.
Division bench comprising of Justice S S Shinde and Justice Manish Pitale observed that it is a "genuine and fit case to grant relief" and given the health condition of the under-trial, “it would be inappropriate” to send him back to jail. The court ordered a six-months bail, but on several conditions.
The court directed that Rao must remain within the jurisdiction of the Special NIA Court, appear before the court whenever required though he could apply to seek exemption from physical appearance and not to indulge in any kind of activities of which he was earlier accused in the police case.
