Activist Sudha Bharadwaj To Be Released After 3 Years In Jail

Lawyer-activist Sudha Bharadwaj, arrested in 2018 in the Koregaon-Bhima case, is likely to be released this evening after spending three years in jail. This comes a day after the Supreme Court rejected a petition by the National Investigation Agency (NIA), challenging the Bombay High Court order on her bail. "We see no reason to interfere with the high court order. Plea dismissed," a bench of Justices UU Lalit, SR Bhat, and Bela M Trivedi said, clearing her release.
