According to a Bengaluru Police official, Nikita Singhania was arrested in Gurugram in Haryana, while her mother, Nisha Singhania, and brother Anurag Singhania were arrested in Prayagraj in Uttar Pradesh. All of them are accused of instigating Atul Subhash to commit suicide. He was detained on 14 December, brought to Bengaluru and sent to judicial custody for 14 days after being produced in a local court.

In the Allahabad High Court, senior lawyer Manish Tiwari argued that since Nikita, Nisha and Anurag had already been arrested, the anticipatory bail petition has been filed only on behalf of Sushil Singhania. It was argued on behalf of the lawyer that the above arrests were based on a suicide note and a video which had circulated online. Advocate Manish Tiwari said that 69-year-old Sushil Singhania is suffering from chronic medical problems, is incompetent and cannot instigate anyone to commit suicide.

The lawyer further argued that there is a difference between harassment and instigation. He said that even if the court takes cognizance of Atul Subhash’s suicide note, the allegations would be of harassment rather than instigation. He also said that Section 108, 3(5) of BNS cannot be applicable to the case. After hearing the arguments, Justice Ashutosh Srivastava ruled that after hearing the arguments of the defense, the court is of the opinion that the applicant Sushil Singhania is entitled to get anticipatory bail.
