Court grants anticipatory bail to Mithun’s wife, son in rape case

NEW DELHI: A Delhi court today granted anticipatory bail to veteran actor Mithun Chakraborty’s wife and son in a complaint of alleged rape and cheating filed by a woman.

Special Judge Ashutosh Kumar granted the relief to Chakraborty’s wife Yogita Bali and their son Mahaakshay saying they have deep roots in society and are not likely to abscond.

“Accordingly, it is ordered that in the event of arrest, both the applicants shall be released on a personal bond of Rs one lakh with two sureties each of the like amount,” the judge said.

An FIR was lodged pursuant to court’s order on the complainant of a woman who alleged that Mahaakshay had cheated and raped her. She alleged he had physical relations with her for around four years after promising her marriage.

The court had said that prima facie there are sufficient grounds for registration of an FIR against Bali and Mahaakshay and to proceed further in accordance with the law. (AGENCIES)
