The Gujarat High Court has rejected journalist Ravi Nair’s plea for interim release in a criminal defamation case filed against him by the Adani Group, Bar and Bench reported.
The court had earlier given Adani Enterprises additional time to respond to Nair’s petition challenging his custody in a criminal defamation case, pushing the matter to September 23. Justice MK Thakker on Wednesday reserved her decision on Nair’s petition. The court said that it will dictate the order next Wednesday.
