A sessions court at Alibaug in Raigad district of Maharashtra on Saturday posted for hearing on Monday (November 9) the police's revision petition challenging a magistrate's order to send Republic TV Editor-in-Chief Arnab Goswami to judicial custody over a 2018 abetment to suicide case.

The Alibaug district sessions court passed the order after it was informed that the Bombay High Court is presently hearing petitions filed by Arnab Goswami and two other accused in the case - Feroze Shaikh and Nitesh Sarda - seeking interim bail and challenging their "illegal arrest".
