Pune: Eknath Khadse Gets Interim Bail In Bhosari Land Scam Case
Pune, 6th December 2023: Former minister Eknath Khadse has been granted interim bail in the Bhosari land embezzlement case, providing temporary relief. The Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB) had registered a case against Khadse in connection with the alleged misappropriation of land in Bhosari.
The ACB filed a charge sheet against Khadse in this case. To secure interim bail, Khadse submitted an application to Special Judge P. P. Jadhav, who granted the temporary relief.
Khadse filed the bail application in the special court on Wednesday, and officials from the ACB have stated that the hearing for Khadse’s bail application is scheduled for January 3, 2024. Khadse’s request for bail has been granted interim relief by the court.
The allegations suggest that, during his tenure as a minister, Khadse abused his authority to acquire a land valued at Rs 40 crore from the Maharashtra Industrial Development Corporation (MIDC) in Bhosari for Rs 3 crore 75 lakh, favoring his wife and daughter-in-law.
