Court Rejects Activist Gautam Navlakha's Bail Plea In Koregaon-Bhima Case

Navlakha had moved the sessions court in Pune on 5 November to seek anticipatory bail.

According to Pune Police, "inflammatory" speeches and "provocative" statements made at the Elgar Parishad conclave held here on 31 December 2017, triggered caste violence at Koregaon Bhima in the district on 1 January 2018.

The police alleged that the conclave was backed by Maoists.
