BJP leader Kirit Somaiya moves HC in INS Vikrant case

Maharashtra Bharatiya Janata Party vice–president and former MP Kirit Somaiya moved the Bombay High Court on Tuesday challenging rejection of his anticipatory bail in the INS Vikrant case.

A special court on April 11 rejected his anticipatory bail. His plea mentions that the ₹57–crore case is of 2013 and is therefore politically motivated. It also says there is no evidence of his involvement.

A special court had also rejected Mr. Somaiya's son Neil's pre–arrest bail on Tuesday.
