Mumbai Court Grants Bail to Sachin Waze in Antilia Bomb Scare and Hiran Murder Cases

Analysed 29 Sept 2026·6 sources analysed·Mumbai, India·Crime
Mumbai Court Grants Bail to Sachin Waze in Antilia Bomb Scare and Hiran Murder CasesPreviousNext

A special NIA court granted bail to dismissed Mumbai police officer Sachin Waze in the 2021 Antilia bomb scare and Mansukh Hiran murder cases. The court found insufficient evidence to establish a prima facie case of terrorism under the UAPA, noting the Ambani family was not terrorized and the explosives lacked detonators. Bail conditions include surrendering Waze's passport and restrictions on his movement. The cases involve an explosives-laden SUV near Mukesh Ambani's residence and the subsequent death of businessman Mansukh Hiran.
