State of Chhattisgarh vs Chintamani Patel

Asaram Bapu has approached the Supreme Court challenging the Rajasthan High Court judgment that upheld his life sentence in a 2013 minor rape case. While the High Court upheld the conviction on other charges, it acquitted him of the gang rape charge. The Supreme Court has issued notice on the plea and is currently hearing the appeal.

The Chhattisgarh High Court granted a divorce to a husband, setting aside an earlier Family Court judgment. The court held that the wife's persistent conduct, including continuous litigation and other behaviors, amounted to mental cruelty, thereby justifying the dissolution of the marriage.

The CBI filed charge sheets against six accused persons in a case linked to the Mahadev betting app, which allegedly operated illegal gambling markets and generated huge profits through money laundering via mule bank accounts. A portion of the illegal proceeds was allegedly paid as protection money to public servants, forming the basis of the corruption investigation.
