Mumbai: A special Mumbai court Friday granted bail
to woman journalist Jigna Vora arrested in the murder of senior
journalist Jyotirmoy Dey in June last year.
A Maharashtra Control of Organised Crime Act (MCOCA) granted bail
to Vora on a personal bond of Rs.100,000 and directed her to
appear at the Mumbai Crime Branch - the investigative agency in
the case - every first and third week of the month.
Working as a deputy bureau chief with a Mumbai daily, Vora was
arrested Nov 25 last year in connection with the June 11 killing
of Dey, the editor (Special Investigations) at Mid-Day.
In December last year, a charge sheet against 12 accused was filed
in the case. However, the name of Vora was not included.
Her name appeared in a 1,400 page supplementary charge sheet filed
in February.
According to police, Vora had allegedly provided Dey's mobile
number and his exact location to fugitive mafia don Chhota Rajan,
who has also been named in the charge sheet.
