Nagpur: The Nagpur Bench of Bombay High Court on Tuesday granted interim bail to Laxmi Yadav, the beleaguered wife of BJP leader Omprakash alias MunnaYadav.

The matter was listed before Justice Atul Chandurkar who has granted interim bail to Laxmi Yadav only.

Notably, Yadav and his family members have been booked by Dhantoli police after a family tiff turned violent and each side charged other with attempt to murder. So far, Munna Yadav, Chairman of Maharashtra Construction Workers’ Welfare Board and his brother Bala Yadav have not moved the anticipatory bail application. On Friday, the Sessions Court rejected anticipatory bail application moved by his Corporator wife — Laxmi, sons Karan and Arjun. The anticipatory bail application was listed before Justice Atul Chandurkar. The applicants were represented by legal stalwarts like senior counsels Avinash Gupta and Sunil Manohar.
