Gujarat High Court on Friday extended the temporary bail of godman Asaram till July 7, who is serving a life sentence in a 2013 rape case. As the extended bail period was nearing its end, Asaram filed for a further extension.
In the latest application, Asaram’s legal counsel argued that the 83-year-old is suffering from multiple health issues and is currently undergoing Panchakarma treatment, which needs to be completed.
The counsel also informed the court that Asaram is awaiting a certificate from the National Legal Services Authority confirming his status as a seriously ill and elderly prisoner.
A hearing was held on the application filed by Asaram, during which Justices Elisha Vora and Sandeep Bhatt granted him an extension of his bail on Friday.
