A Mumbai court has granted bail to three individuals who were detained by Mumbai police earlier this month for allegedly entering India unlawfully on a boat from Kuwait. The court`s decision was based on the absence of substantial evidence linking them to any criminal activity apart from allegedly leaving with a fishing boat without the owner`s consent.
As no incriminating "angle" was found in the case except that they allegedly fled with a fishing boat without the permission of its owner, it would not be just to keep them behind bars, said additional chief metropolitan magistrate (Esplanade court) Pravin Modi, newswire PTI reported.
