The Supreme Court of India has dismissed a habeas corpus petition filed against the Isha Foundation, founded by Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev. The petition, filed by the father of two women, alleged that they were being illegally confined at the organization’s ashram in Coimbatore. However, the two women confirmed that they were residing at the ashram voluntarily, leading the court to close the case.
Mihir Shah, the main accused in the fatal BMW hit-and-run case in Mumbai, has filed a habeas corpus petition in the Bombay High Court seeking immediate release, claiming his detention is illegal. Shah was arrested on July 9 for allegedly causing the death of Kaveri Nakhwa and injuring her husband Pradeep in a collision with their two-wheeler. The case has taken a new turn with the revelation that Shah’s blood alcohol test came back negative, contradicting earlier police claims.
