A Nashik court in Maharashtra, India, held a hearing on April 28, 2023, regarding the anticipatory bail plea of Nida Aijaz Khan, who is implicated in a case involving alleged religious conversion and sexual harassment linked to the Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) office in Nashik. The prosecution, represented by government lawyer Ajay Mishra, emphasized the serious nature of the allegations, stating that the case is at a preliminary stage and involves significant concerns about coercion and religious practices. The prosecution argued that the victim, belonging to a backward class, was influenced by Khan under the pretext of marriage promises and was subjected to pressure regarding her religious attire and practices. Items recovered during the investigation, including a burqa and instructional materials, were presented in court as evidence.
