JNU sexual harassment case: Prof Bimol Akoijam gets interim protection from arrest

What's behind this

A Delhi court disposed of Congress MP and Jawaharlal Nehru University professor Angomcha Bimol Akoijam’s anticipatory bail plea in a sexual‑harassment case, granting him interim protection from arrest. The Rouse Avenue Court, through Special Judge Digvinay Singh, barred the Delhi Police from taking any coercive action against Akoijam and ordered that the police give him a written notice of seven days before any possible arrest. This decision provides temporary relief while the underlying case proceeds.
