The Bombay High Court issues a ruling in the doctors’ assault case by both expediting the criminal trial process and granting bail to Shiv Sena corporator Ramesh Mhatre and three other accused. According to the reports, the court fast-tracks the proceedings, directing that the investigation and prosecution proceed within a time-bound framework. As part of the bail conditions, the court orders the accused to remain outside Maharashtra until the trial begins. The articles state that they will stay outside the state and that the bail terms include restrictions aimed at preventing evidence tampering or interference with witnesses. One report adds that the accused will temporarily reside in Goa while the case moves forward under the court’s schedule. The court’s order focuses on accelerating the timeline for the matter to reach trial, while also setting compliance requirements for the accused during the period leading up to the commencement of the criminal proceedings.
