Supreme Court Stays Bail for Sena Corporator in Doctor Assault Case

The Supreme Court on Tuesday stayed the bail granted to Shiv Sena corporator Ramesh Mhatre, who was accused of assaulting a doctor at a Thane hospital.

The bench, led by the Chief Justice, questioned the High Court's decision to grant bail, noting that individuals who attack medical professionals do not deserve leniency.

The state government has been directed to file a formal plea against the bail order, with the court emphasizing the need to protect healthcare workers from violence.
