Jharkhand High Court Grants Bail to Rahul Gandhi in Defamation Case Over Remarks on Amit Shah

The Jharkhand High Court granted bail to Rahul Gandhi in a criminal defamation case for allegedly accusing Amit Shah of being involved in a murder case. The complaint was filed by BJP member Pratap Katiyar.

In February, the Jharkhand High Court quashed Gandhi’s petition to quash the criminal defamation case. After he failed to appear in court, the Chaibasa court issued a non-bailable warrant on 27th February.

A second warrant was later issued, directing him to appear on 26th June. Gandhi again approached the High Court, which directed him to appear before the trial court.
