Mumbai Court Grants Bail to Sachin Waze in Antilia Bomb Scare Case
A special NIA court granted bail to former police officer Sachin Waze in the 2021 Antilia bomb scare and Mansukh Hiran murder cases, ruling that the prosecution failed to establish a prima facie case of terrorism under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA). The court noted no evidence that the Ambani family was terrorised and found the gelatin sticks lacked detonators, falling short of a terrorist act. Waze faces restrictions including surrendering his passport and limited travel until trial completion.
