A court in Ahmedabad granted bail to Mayank Patel the day after he was arrested for allegedly harassing and stalking a government official in Modasa, Aravalli.

Patel has been booked under Indian Penal Code section 500 for defamation, 354d for stalking, 506 for criminal intimidation and 509 for insulting the modesty of a woman along with sections of the Information Technology Amendment Act. “The accused officer was granted conditional bail, provided he reports to the police station from 1st to 5th of every month till the chargesheet is filed. The accused will not threaten or lure the victim and her family, nor will he get involved in such activities again.
