The Gujarat High Court has suspended the life sentence of Shiva Solanki, nephew of former BJP MP Dinu Solanki, in the 2010 murder of RTI activist Amit Jethwa, and granted him bail pending hearing on his appeal.
A division bench of Justices S H Vora and Mauna Bhatt on Monday also granted Shiva Solanki bail while terming his conviction as prima facies erroneous. Shiva Solanki, one of the seven accused sentenced to life imprisonment by a special CBI court, has filed an appeal against the conviction before the high court. His uncle Dinu Solanki too has been convicted in the case and is out on bail.
