Argument For Bail
Lawyer Naznin Khatri, who is defending Radiowala in this case said that there were no initial proofs against him. And as the main accused pleaded guilty in the matter, there can no charges be put on Radiowala(Mahesh Bhatt murder conspiracy).
Justice Bharti Dengre also noted that Radiowala is also accused of taking 3.5 lacs as a loan from his gang member but, this cannot be considered suspicious as that gang member and Radiowala are brothers. Naznin Khatri also said that Radiowala borrowed that money to take care of her mother.
