NASHIK: In the TCS Nashik case, the absconding pregnant employee did not get interim relief from the court on Monday.The next hearing is on April 27. The lawyer of the absconding female accused, Rahul Kasliwal, told the court, “Casual talk on religion does not amount to hurting religious sentiments.”A 26-year-old woman employee accused in a case of alleged “religious harassment” at the Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) Nashik office has moved the Nashik Road Sessions Court seeking anticipatory bail, citing pregnancy among the grounds for relief. Her lawyer, Baba Sayyed, told TOI on Saturday, “We have applied for the anticipatory bail plea of our client in the court of Nashik Road Sessions Judge Kedar Joshi, and the court will hear our plea on Monday.” Sayyed, along with advocate Rahul Kasliwal, who filed the application, said multiple grounds had been cited in the plea. “One of the grounds is that she is not the main accused. Secondly, the punishment is up to three years in the case pertaining to hurting religious sentiments filed against my client. Hence, we have sought her pre-arrest bail.”
