A Delhi court, in a bail order released on Friday, acknowledged the seriousness of the allegations against Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh, the outgoing Wrestling Federation of India (WFI) chief, and Vinod Tomar, the suspended WFI assistant secretary. Both are BJP MPs and were accused of sexual harassment by six women wrestlers. Despite the seriousness of the allegations, the court stated that it would not serve any purpose to take them into custody at this stage.

Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate (ACMM) Harjeet Singh Jaspal of Rouse Avenue court granted bail to Mr. Singh and Mr. Tomar on Thursday. The court referred to Article 21 of the Constitution, emphasizing that detaining undertrial prisoners indefinitely would violate their personal liberty. The Delhi Police, which filed the chargesheet, did not oppose or support the bail application.

The court warned the accused not to leave the country without prior permission from the court and also cautioned them against directly or indirectly threatening or influencing the complainants and witnesses.

Citing a previous judgment in the case of Satender Kumar Antil vs. CBI (2022), the court mentioned that the Supreme Court has strongly advocated personal liberty and directed subordinate courts to follow bail guidelines. It noted that when an accused has cooperated with the investigation and the chargesheet has been filed without arrest, it is not mandatory for the trial court to take the accused into custody, and bail should be decided on merit.

00:00 before yesterday, I had given you an update on Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh and that is the former WFI

00:06 chief and Bharatiya Janata Party MP and his assistant secretary of WFI Vinod Tomar getting

00:14 bail from Delhi court. I had reported this to you day before yesterday and I have an update for you.

00:21 The update is a few statements from the court, the judge while hearing the bail order said that the

00:28 allegations are serious but the seriousness of the allegations are not the only test or the factor to

00:35 decide the same. When the under trial prisoners are detained in jail to an indefinite period,

00:43 article 21 of the constitution is violated. Reliance is placed on the observation of the

00:49 honourable supreme court in Sanjay Chandra that is Supra in the matter at hand in my considered

00:57 opinion at the stage no purpose will be served by taking the accused person in custody at this

01:03 stage. This is what the judge said while hearing his bail. The judge also mentioned another thing.

01:10 The judge said that the additional public prosecutor has not even opposed the bail.

01:16 His simple submission is that it must be decided in accordance with the direction of the honourable

01:22 supreme court in Satyendra Kumar Antil that is Supra the court order said.

01:29 The point I wanted to make is the additional public prosecutor did not even oppose the bail.

01:38 He had nothing to say. I did not say this. The judge is saying it. He did not even oppose the

01:42 bail. So it is as if they are okay if the accused Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh and his assistant

01:54 secretary Vinod Tomar gets bail. They were okay with that. I mean that is how it sounds.

02:00 That is very strange. That is very strange. Like I say for any other case, especially politically

02:07 driven case, the whole government comes behind you. The whole government comes behind you. Every

02:13 solicitor general, everybody is out there to ensure that the man does not get out of the prison.

02:18 But in this case, they are okay. The additional public prosecutor has not even opposed the bail.

02:25 These are the words of the judge. These are the words of the judge.

02:31 You see, the point is when you see a sexual molestation or sexual harassment accused,

02:41 walking free, laughing out there, when you see people like Ram Rahim who are rapist,

02:49 getting parole after parole and enjoying his birthday,

02:57 you give birth to 10 new rapists in this country. We give birth to 10 new rapists in this country.

03:04 Because if a rapist is not punished, if the rapist is celebrating his birthday at home,

03:10 that is okay, isn't it? The message we are sending to the society, it is okay.

03:16 Is that the message that we intend to send? Till such time that our society, our judiciary,

03:26 our government does not impose serious punishment on rape and on sexual molestation,

03:34 unless and until we do that, unless and until we create the fear of God

03:38 on those people who have these deviant intentions, unless and until we do that,

03:46 rape is not going to stop in India. Rape is not going to stop in India. This is going to be rampant.

03:52 And that is the point I wanted to make. And as far as this case is concerned, this case of

03:58 accused sexual molestation by MP, Bharatiya Janata Party MP of Uttar Pradesh, what is sad is

04:06 that an additional public prosecutor did not even oppose his bail, did not even oppose his bail.

04:16 That is the point I wanted to make. Till I meet you next time, today at 10, I have an interview

04:22 with a lady from Manipur, a cookie lady from Manipur. I would urge you to watch that interview

04:31 today, tonight at 10 till I see you then. Namaskar.
