Bombay High Court on February 17 granted three-week transit anticipatory bail to advocate & activist Nikita Jacob. A non-bailable warrant is issued against Jacob in Delhi in the Greta Thunberg toolkit case. The court said that in the event of arrest in the crime registered by Special Cell, Delhi Police, the applicant (Jacob) be released on bail on furnishing Rs 25000 personal bonds and sureties. High Court had reserved its order on Jacob’s plea on February 11. The Delhi police had on February 15 alleged that she, along with Bengaluru environmentalist Disha Ravi & Maharashtra engineer Shantanu Muluk, had created a toolkit meant to tarnish India's image. Appearing for Jacob, senior counsel Mihir Desai, however, said his client, who has practised in the HC for nearly 6-7 years, had apprehended arrest and therefore filed for transitory pre-arrest bail on February 12.
