Gauhati High Court Denies Anticipatory Bail to Congress Leader Pawan Khera

The Gauhati High Court on Friday denied the anticipatory bail application of Congress leader Pawan Khera amid allegations that he hurled at Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma's wife. The accusations involve claims of multiple passports and undisclosed foreign properties.

Justice Parthiv Jyoti Saikia rejected Khera's plea, marking a significant setback for the Congress leader. The court observed that the charges might involve the possession of forged documents, necessitating further investigation through custodial interrogation.

The legal battle ensues while Khera attempts to clear his name amid rising political tension. Despite his petitions in the Telangana and Supreme Courts, the case remains unresolved, with implications extending into political and legal domains.
