Police file status report, want Pachauri's anticipatory bail cancelled
July 16, 2015
The Delhi High Court has refused to cancel former TERI chief RK Pachauri's bail saying the matter requires detailed hearing. The police report says Pachauri's anticipatory bail should be cancelled since he is influencing witnesses. The police have filed a status report in the case today.
Pachauri was granted anticipatory bail on March 21 by the court which
had rejected the request of police for his custody in the molestation
case.
The court had granted him anticipatory bail by imposing several
conditions on him including that he will join the probe as and when
called, he will not enter TERI office premises and not intimidate or
threaten the complainant and the witnesses of the case.
On February 13, a First Information Report was registered against Mr
Pachauri on charges of sexual harassment under sections 354, 354(a),
354(d) (molestation) and 506 (criminal intimidation) of the IPC at Lodhi
Colony Police Station after the woman had submitted a 33-page complaint
in this regard to the police.
