Shiney Ahuja's bail plea rejected again

The sessions court on Wednesday rejected the bail application of Bollywood actor Shiney Ahuja. This was the second time in a week that the actor bail plea was turned down by the court. The Bollywood actor Shiney was arrested for allegedly raping his maid.

In his previous plea on July 3, defence lawyer Shrikant Shivade had told the court that he would require time to go through the prosecution's reply and the investigation reports submitted by the police.

Ahuja was arrested on June 15 after his domestic help accused him of raping her while they were alone at his house.

Police officials said DNA and medical reports of the victim and Ahuja had corroborated the allegations made by the maid in FIR.

Chief Minister Ashok Chavan had said the case would be committed to a fast track court soon to ensure justice and rehabilitation would be provided to the victim.

Ahuja's judicial custody has been extended till July 16 and is currently lodged in the Arthur Road jail in central Mumbai.
