NUJS sex harassment

08 May 2014

The sexual harassment case against NUJS Kolkata assistant registrar Siddhartha Guha, who was arrested late last year after a female staff member accused him of sexual harassment and violent threats, has climbed to the apex court over cancellation of his bail.

The woman, represented by advocates Siddharth Dave and Phiroze Edulji appealed to the Supreme Court for Guha's bail to be cancelled, after the trial court granted him bail after 14 days in jail, but Guha had filed a caveat petition in the apex court alerting him to the challenge.

The bench of justices Ranjana Prakash Desai and NV Ramana asked Guha's lawyer and the West Bengal government for arguments after the court vacations on why his bail should not be cancelled. [Times of India]
