Ajeet Bharti moves Delhi court for anticipatory bail, says no case made out under SC/ST Act

The case was heard today by Additional Sessions Judge (ASJ) Saurabh Pratap Singh Laler. Advocate Jai Anant Dehadrai and Pratyush Prasanna appeared for Bharti and argued that no offence under the SC/ST Act was made out against him on the facts of this case. Dehadrai added that the police was yet to issue a notice under Section 35(3) of Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita (BNSS) to Bharti. Section 35(3) mandates that police officers must issue a written notice of appearance to an accused person in cases where an immediate arrest is not required.
