The Bombay High Court has granted bail to Akhil Lakdawala, who was arrested in 2019 for alleged extortion. The court noted that he has been in custody for nearly six years, violating his right to a speedy trial. Justice Milind Jadhav emphasized the importance of timely trials and ordered Akhil and his accomplice, Sagar Yadav, to be released on a personal bond of Rs 50,000 each. They must report to the investigating officer monthly. Akhil's brother, Ejaz Lakdawala, a former gang member, remains wanted for multiple offenses and was arrested last year after evading bail.
