Shiney’s judicial custody extended till August 13

In a bail application filed by Ahuja last month,the defence lawyer had argued that Ahuja belongs to a respectable family and the case was concocted. His lawyer Shrikant Shivde further told the court that the actor was willing to shift to Delhi or any other city if the judge felt that he may tamper with evidence or influence witnesses if he was released from jail.

However,the court accepted prosecution’s argument that Shiney was accused of a heinous crime. The prosecutor had also argued that Ahuja’s release will send across a wrong message to women.

With forensic reports going against Ahuija,defence will have to wait till the chargesheet is filed. Ahuja has already spent more than a month behind bars.
