VADODARA: A local court on Monday rejected the bail application of the man who arrested under the recently amended Gujarat Freedom of Religion Act. It was the first case in the state under the new ‘love jihad’ law and the accused, who was booked for forcefully converting his wife and committing atrocities on her. He was arrested on June 18.
“The bail was rejected on several grounds. I argued that the man is accused of serious crimes and he had illegally converted her. He also used abusive words for her caste and blackmailed the woman by threatening to make her nude videos viral,” said advocate Anil Desai, public prosecutor appearing for the complainant.

VADODARA: It was the first offence to be registered under the amended Gujarat Freedom of Religion Act in the state. But the married woman, who had accused her husband of forced conversion a fortnight ago, has now filed an affidavit in the court saying she wasn’t forced to convert. The 25-year-old woman has even urged the court to approve her husband’s bail application.
“She has gone back on her complaint in the affidavit and said that her husband didn’t force her to convert. She has also denied other allegations made in the FIR. But, she must have done the affidavit under pressure,” said Anil Desai, public prosecutor in the case.
