#MeToo movement: Alok Nath’s anticipatory bail plea in Vinta Nanda rape case defferred till December 31

The #MeToo movement hit India a year after it gained prominence across

Hollywood. In the long list of names alleged as sexual predators and

harassers, Alok Nath was at the receiving end of rape allegations by

writer-producer Vinta Nanda. Earlier this month, Alok Nath had filed an

anticipatory bail application in a Mumbai court.

The plea for pre-arrest bail

was filed before Additional Sessions Judge S S Oza, PTI had reported.

That bail plea has been deferred by the sessions court today. According

to ANI, “Writer Vinta Nanda rape case: Order in Alok Nath's anticipatory

bail plea has been deferred till 31 December by Dindoshi Sessions Court

as dictation of the order was not completed.”
