"Surrender Immediately": Gujarat Court Denies Activist Teesta Setalvad Bail
NDTV
Teesta Setalvad walked out of jail in September 2022 after being granted relief by the Supreme Court.
The Gujarat High Court on Saturday rejected the regular bail plea of social activist Teesta Setalvad and directed her to surrender immediately in a case pertaining to the alleged fabrication of evidence to frame innocent people in 2002 post-Godhra riots cases.
The court of Justice Nirzar Desai rejected Setalvad's bail plea and directed her to surrender immediately as she is already out of jail after securing interim bail.
As the applicant is out on interim bail granted by the Supreme Court, she is directed to surrender immediately, the court said in its order.
Setalvad and co-accused and former Director General of Police R B Sreekumar were taken into custody by Gujarat police on June 25 last year and a court sent them in judicial custody on July 2 after their police remand ended.
