Nashik rape case: Bail plea of NCP MLA,aide rejected

A local court rejected the bail application of MLA Dilip Wagh and his personal assistant Mahesh Mali arrested for allegedly raping a girl last month.

The bail application of both Wagh and Mali,currently in judicial custody,was moved in the district court by the legislator’s counsel M Y Kale. After hearing the arguments,the court rejected the plea.

Wagh,the MLA from Pachora in Jalgaon district,was suspended by his party,the NCP,after the case came to light in February-end.

The duo is accused of raping the girl in Nashik’s government rest house on February 21 night after inviting her there on the pretext of helping her get a job.
