Tripura court grants bail to Trinamool youth leader Saayoni Ghosh
AGARTALA: Trinamool Congress youth wing chief Saayoni Ghosh, who was arrested by the Tripura police on Sunday on charges of attempt to murder and provocation with intent to cause riot, was granted bail by a court in Tripura on Monday. Granting bail to Ghosh, Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate of West Tripura district, Soumya Bikash Das, directed her to cooperate with the police investigation in the case registered against her. The police had urged the court for two-day custody of Ghosh, but their plea was rejected. Defence lawyer Shankar Lodh said that the court did not find appropriate evidence to support the police's claim, nor did it found sufficient reason for Ghosh's arrest.
"On the basis of Rs 20,000 bond and a surety, the court granted bail to Ghosh," Lodh told the media in the court complex. IANS
