Bombay High Court Reserves Order on NIA Appeal Against Sachin Waze Bail
The Bombay High Court reserved its order on the National Investigation Agency's appeal against bail granted to dismissed police officer Sachin Waze in the 2021 Antilia bomb scare and Mansukh Hiran murder cases. The court questioned whether Waze would rejoin the police if released, with his lawyer confirming his termination. The bench also challenged the NIA's classification of the offences as terrorism under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act, seeking clarity on the connection between Waze and the explosives found near Mukesh Ambani's residence. Waze remains in custody under an interim stay.
