‘He is very sick’, Anil Deshmukh’s lawyer in SC seeking early hearing on his bail plea

The Supreme Court on Tuesday asked the Bombay High Court to expeditiously hear a plea for bail by jailed NCP leader and former Maharashtra Home Minister Anil Deshmukh in a money laundering case, under investigation by the Enforcement Directorate (ED).
Senior advocate Kapil Sibal, representing Deshmukh, submitted before a bench comprising Justices Ajay Rastogi and B.V. Nagarathna, “he is a very sick man and 73 years old…”
Sibal pointed out that the bail plea has not been taken up for hearing after it was filed on March 25. “I only want my application to be heard…let it be heard on reopening,” said Sibal.
The bench, in its order, noted that the bail plea was filed on March 25 and it was listed on three occasions, and ‘it appears due to paucity of time it could not be heard’. The bench allowed Deshmukh to file an application before the high court for early listing of his bail plea.
Disposing of the matter, the bench said, “We hope and trust that the matter will be expeditiously heard and that the application is taken on board and be heard expeditiously…” Deshmukh moved the apex court assailing the high court orders of adjourning his bail plea.
Former Mumbai Police commissioner Param Bir Singh, had claimed that it was Deshmukh who forced him to collect Rs 100 crore every month from bars and restaurants in Mumbai. Singh accused Deshmukh of misusing his post.
In November last year, Deshmukh was placed under arrest by the ED in connection with a Rs 100 crore money laundering case pertaining to the alleged posting and transfer of the officials.

Loudspeakers of mosques in Mumbai, Kirit Somaiya’s notice against mosques, threat of deteriorating atmosphere, police notice to maintain law and order,

Mumbai: Mumbai The controversy over loudspeakers of Mumbai mosques has now intensified. BJP leader Kirit Somaiya is adamant on action against mosques in Mumbai, after which the Mumbai Police also issued a restraining order notice to Kirit Somaiya. But despite all this, Kirit Somaiya visited the Bhandup police and not only demanded action against loudspeakers, but the police, under Kirit Somaiya’s pressure, took action against loudspeakers of four mosques in Malind. In addition, an illegal mosque was located in Jala Ram Market. Action was taken against it. So far, 11 loudspeakers have been removed. All these loudspeakers were on the mosque within the limits of the Bhandup police station. This information was given by Kirit Somaiya.
Bhandup police had issued a notice under Section 168 to Kirit Somaiya to maintain law and order, asking him not to visit the Muslim settlements of Bhandup Khandipara during his visit on April 19, as this could pose a threat to law and order and also create traffic problems. Along with this, the police had also issued an order for action under Section 223 for violating the notice, despite which Kirit Somaiya appeared at the Bhandup police station.
Kirit Somaiya incitement against mosques is at its peak, and Kirit Somaiya’s campaign in Mumbai city is also threatening law and order and communal harmony, while Kirit Somaiya has also warned of intensifying this campaign, which continues to pose a law and order problem in Mumbai city. Kirit Somaiya’s campaign against mosques has also raised fears of communal tension, while the police have now started the process of sending notices to Kirit Somaiya for visiting Muslim-majority areas. However, despite this, Kirit Somaiya tries to pressure police officers by going to the relevant police station, while the police have banned Kirit Somaiya from entering mosques and other religious places in Muslim-majority areas. This is the first time this action has been taken against Kirit Somaiya in Bhandup.
