The Bombay High Court will announce its ruling on the anticipatory bail plea filed by Deputy Inspector General (DIG) Nishikant More, who is still absconding, today. The court, while reserving the order on the application, said it will look into the video evidence in the case if required. The DIG has been accused of molesting a 17-year-old girl at her birthday party in June last year.

During the hearing on Tuesday, Advocate Samrat Thakkar, who is representing the survivor's family, highlighted More's past records, which shows he was suspended in connection with different incidents. The defence lawyer told the court that More was given clean chit in all the past cases. He also argued that the minor's family filed a false molestation case over a property dispute.
