Raj Kundra to stay in jail as Bombay High Court rejects his plea challenging arrest in p**nography case

Mumbai: In a massive setback, the Bombay High Court on Saturday dismissed the petition filed by businessman Raj Kundra and his aide Ryan Thorpe’s applications challenging magistrate court’s remand order and seeking immediate release. A single-judge bench of Justice AS Gadkari said that there was nothing wrong in the Magistrate Court’s order when it remanded Raj Kundra to police custody.

“Remand to custody by magistrate is within conformity of law and does not require interference,” the Bombay High Court observed, as reported by Bar and Bench.
