Toolkit case: Delhi court grants bail to activist Disha Ravi

NEW DELHI: A Delhi court on Tuesday granted bail to Bengaluru-based

climate activist Disha Ravi

in connection with the

toolkit case

.


The court granted bail to 21-year-old activist on a personal bond of Rs one lakh and two sureties of like amount.

The court on Monday had sent Disha Ravi to one-day police custody to be confronted with co-accused in the case - Nikita Jacob and Shantanu Muluk. Jacob and Muluk joined the probe on Monday. They were questioned at the Delhi Police Cyber Cell office in Dwarka.

The Delhi Police, probing the "toolkit Google doc" shared by climate activist Greta Thunberg, had arrested Bengaluru-based activist Disha Ravi, while Jacob and Muluk were granted pre-arrest bail by court.

Police had alleged that the toolkit Google doc, shared by climate activist Greta Thunberg was part of a global conspiracy to create unrest and trigger violence in India in the garb of the farmers' protest against the agri laws.

Farmers, mostly from Punjab, Haryana and western Uttar Pradesh, are protesting at various border points of Delhi demanding repeal of the Centre's three new farm laws.
