A court on Tuesday denied bail to the bodyguard of Mauris Noronha, whose pistol was used to gun down Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Abhishek Ghosalkar. The police arrested Amarendra Mishra under the Arms Act, as Noronha, a local businessman and ‘social worker’, had allegedly used his weapon to kill Ghosalkar during a Facebook live session in suburban Borivli last month and later killed himself.
