MUMBAI: District and Additional Sessions Judge of the Vasai court,R D Deshpande, on Saturday granted bail to television actor Sheezan Khan on a personal bond of Rs one lakh. The court also directed Khan (28) to surrender his passport to the police, to which his advocate informed that the actor had already surrendered his passport.
Khan who is accused of abetment of suicide of his former girlfriend and co-star Tunisha Sharma is in the Thane jail since December 31. He was arrested by the Valiv police, a day after Tunisha was found hanging in the washroom of Khan’s make-up room in a studio at Naigaon on December 24, 2022. The two were lead actors in a show and had parted ways two weeks before the suicide. He is likely to walk out of prison on Monday. Khan (28) had moved a second bail application on February 20, after the Valiv police filed a 524 pages chargesheet against the actor on February 16. Khan is charged with abetment of suicide of Tunisha (21), after her mother Vanita filed a complaint with the Valiv police. His first bail plea was rejected by the Vasai court on January 19.
After the order, Khan’s advocate Shailendra Mishra said that the entire investigation was shoddy. He said all that the police claimed to have recovered from Sheezan and presented before the media is not part of the chargesheet.
In the arguments that went on for two days, Tunisha’s lawyer Tarun Sharma and additional public prosecutor Sanjay More opposed the bail plea. Mishra argued that his client was being denied bail as he belongs to a minority community. He said the police have got no proof to show that Khan had harassed and led Tunisha to take the extreme step. He said Khan’s petition to quash the FIR against him is likely to be heard in the Bombay high court on March 9.
