Activist Anand Teltumbde arrested from Mumbai airport in Bheema Koregaon case
Pune: Pune police in the wee hours of Saturday arrested writer and activist Anand Teltumbde from Mumbai airport at about 3.30 am. Anand has been arrested in connection with the Bhima Koregaon violence that took place earlier last year.
Police sources confirmed that the writer will be produced in a special court on Saturday
Earlier on Friday, a court in Pune had rejected the anticipatory bail application of Anand citing that the investigating officer had enough evidence to establish the involvement of Anand in the violence.
Additional Sessions Judge Kishor Vadane, who was hearing the bail application had said while rejecting the application “As far as I can observe, there is sufficient evidence material presented by the investigating officer that shows the involvement of the present accused in the alleged commission of the offence”.
Kishor had further observed that, as the investigation of the offence was at a crucial stage, ‘Custodial interrogation of the accused is necessary’.
Inspector Indulkar who arrested Anand from Mumbai airport told his advocate that he was being arrested as his bail application was rejected on Friday.
On January 14, the Supreme Court had granted Anand four week’s protection against arrest till February 11 allowing him to seek bail from the trial court in Pune.
