Mumbai: Lawyer’s wife in MSRTC workers protest case gets court relief
Sadavarte was arrested on Apr 8 and has since been in custody. His advocate Girish Kulkarni had sought bail for him on the grounds that at a meeting the previous day of protest, Sadavarte had asked workers to gather on Apr 12 and so he cannot be held responsible for the protest that took place on Apr 8, for which he was booked.
On Apr 7, the HC had extended the deadline for striking workers of the MSRTC to resume duty by Apr 22, without fear of administrative action.
The police have so far arrested 116 persons, including main accused lawyer Gunaratna Sadavarte, in connection with the agitation staged by striking MSRTC workers at Pawar's residence Silver Oak at Pedder Road here on April 8.
Maharashtra Home Minister Dilip Walse Patil on Tuesday alleged a Nagpur connection to the MSRTC protests outside Sharad Pawar’s residence.
