Bombay High Court Grants Bail to NCP Corporator Laxmi Andekar in Ayush Komkar Murder Case
The Bombay High Court granted bail to NCP corporator Laxmi Andekar after 13 months in custody related to the murder of Ayush Komkar, a case linked to a family feud within the Andekar family. The court barred her from entering Pune district except for trial proceedings. Andekar, who won a municipal election while jailed, was among 14 accused. The court found insufficient prima facie evidence connecting her to the conspiracy, though prosecution objections remain and other accused await bail decisions.
