The Bombay High Court has dealt a major blow to underworld don Abu Salem by rejecting his plea for early release. The court made it clear that Salem must complete his 25-year sentence and that no form of release or relief is possible before that.
Bombay High Court
The Bombay High Court, established in 1862, is one of India’s oldest high courts and a prime example of 19th-century Gothic Revival architecture in Mumbai. It was built during the British colonial era, with its first sitting held in the current building in 1878. The court remains a vital judicial institution, renowned for its landmark judgments and its iconic stone facade featuring a central tower and stained glass windows.
