Pawan Khera's counsels strongly argued against his arrest in the Gauhati High Court, suggesting there's no need for such an action, as the Congress leader faces fire over claims from the Assam CM's wife about him holding multiple passports.
Justice Parthiv Jyoti Saikia reserved the final ruling after hearing extensive arguments from both sides for over three hours. Representing Khera, senior advocate Abhishek Manu Singhvi alleged political vendetta, linking it to upcoming state assembly elections.
Assam Advocate General Devajit Lon Saikia opposed giving Khera any relief, citing serious concerns of cheating and forgery. The legal arguments underline tensions between political parties against a backdrop of pending elections.
