Bhadauria also objected to the delayed complaint and raised doubts about whether Ghelani’s death was suicide, as he shot himself with his right hand while he was left-handed.Advocate Kalpesh Desai filed an affidavit on behalf of Tanvi Ghelani. Referring to it, public prosecutor Nayan Sukhadwala opposed bail and contended that the complaint was delayed as the complainant was to be married. Ghelani and the accused were friends, and when friendship turned into extortion, it became a very serious matter. When anyone is threatened at the time of a daughter’s wedding, he is definitely under pressure. The accused took a partnership in the school and got two shops in her name. Bhadauria’s sister also did not cooperate with police, as she was the prime witness.After hearing the parties, the court observed: “Various verdicts of the Supreme Court and High Court for quashing and bail cannot be considered for this case as the probe is still going on. When a father dies by suicide at the time of a daughter’s marriage, the seriousness of the crime increases. As the probe is on in this case, the deep evaluation of evidence is not appropriate at this time for the bail application. The accused also raised the question about Ghelani being left-handed and had shot himself with his right hand. Thus, a detailed probe is needed. Primarily, it seems that the accused is involved in the crime. So, if she was released on bail, she may disturb the probe and threaten the complainant and witnesses. So, her regular bail application is rejected in the interest of justice.”
