The bench however sought UP govt’s response to Ansari’s petition seeking bail in an FIR registered in Chitrakoot under the UP Gangster Act. The petitioner alleged that mala fides of police is writ large as the allegation of him running a gang is outlandish as he was in jail at the relevant time. “How can he run a gang from jail,” asked Sibal.
Advocate Nizamuddin Pasha told the court that the UP police have registered as many as 11 cases against Abbas Ansari, of which he has been either granted bail or protected against arrest in 10 cases. SC asked UP govt to file its response in two weeks. Get real-time updates on Budget 2025 and Income Tax Slabs on Times of India .
