MIM Corporator Mateen Patel Granted Conditional Bail in Assault Case
A young woman who works for a big company called TCS was hurt, and people say someone also tried to make her change her religion.
The police said a few people were involved in this bad thing.
One of those people is a city leader named Mateen Patel.
A court in a city called Nashik decided that Mr. Patel could leave jail for now, but with rules.
He had to promise to pay ₹75,000 if he does not follow the rules.
This kind of promise is called a personal bond.
Another person, Danish Shaikh, also wanted to leave jail, but the court did not decide yet.
The judge wants to hear more from the lawyers of the young woman first.
The next court meeting will happen on August 22.
The police are still looking for more information about what each person did.
Nashik Road Court granted conditional bail to MIM corporator Mateen Patel in the TCS employee assault case on furnishing a personal bond of ₹75,000.
Patel faces allegations of assault and attempted religious conversion of a young woman employed with TCS in Nashik.
The bail hearing was held on Monday, August 17; Tausif Attar and Nida Ejaz Khan appeared in person while Danish Shaikh and Mateen Patel appeared via video conferencing from the central jail.
The court adjourned the hearing on prime accused Danish Shaikh's bail plea after the victim's lawyers opposed it, scheduling the next hearing for August 22.
According to allegations, Patel had provided shelter to co-accused Nida Khan, and police are continuing their investigation to establish the role of each accused.
