Canadian citizen gets anticipatory bail in rape case as Supreme Court cites ‘unverified allegations’
The Supreme Court granted anticipatory bail to a Canadian citizen, Manpreet Singh Gill, accused of rape. Justices Aravind Kumar and PB Varale noted that unverified allegations alone aren't grounds for "moral condemnation." Gill, who claims the relationship was consensual and allegations are for extortion, had his pre-arrest bail plea rejected by lower courts.
