Supreme Court Denies Interim Bail to Asaram, Allows Trained Caretaker
The Supreme Court denied interim bail to Asaram, serving a life sentence for sexually assaulting a minor in 2013, but allowed him to engage a trained caretaker for round-the-clock assistance. The court kept his bail plea pending and permitted him to reapply if his health worsens. Experts from AIIMS indicated he does not require hospitalization but needs continuous medical support. The Rajasthan High Court had earlier granted him 20-day parole and upheld his conviction and sentence.
