Court rejects discharge plea of former police officer Pradeep Sharma



Sharma had claimed in his plea that he was in no way connected to the offence registered under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act.There was no case made out to even frame charges against him and mere suspicion was not enough, he said. Sharma was arrested in the case in June 2021. The Supreme Court granted him bail in August 2023.On February 25, 2021, an SUV with explosives inside was found parked near industrialist Mukesh Ambani’s multi-storey residence ‘Antilia’ in south Mumbai.While the probe was on, businessman Mansukh Hiran, who claimed that the SUV was last in his possession before it was stolen, was found dead under mysterious circumstance in a creek in neighbouring Thane on March 5, 2021.Investigating agencies alleged that Sharma, along with dismissed police officer Sachin Waze and some others, had hatched the entire conspiracy.
