After getting relief from Patna High Court, YouTuber Manish Kashyap of Bihar will be released today, i.e. on 23rd December. Manish has been kept in Beur jail of Bihar. He is going to be released from jail after 9 months. First he had to be taken to Tamil Nadu. But, after the decision of Patna Civil Court, it was kept in Bihar only.
The legal clampdown on Manish was tightened when a video surfaced regarding violence against the people of Bihar in Tamil Nadu. The allegation was that Manish showed this video fakely on his YouTube channel. Tamil Nadu Police registered an FIR terming the video as false. Tamil Nadu government had also taken action against Manish under NSA.
Manish had surrendered after attachment and seizure
On this, Manish approached the Supreme Court to get relief. Then the Tamil Nadu government had given arguments in the Supreme Court refusing to remove the NSA. However, Manish got relief. At the same time, about 7 cases are registered against him in Bettiah district of Bihar. In this, apart from assaulting the BJP MLA and threatening to kill him, there is also an allegation of assaulting the bank manager. In this case, after the attachment and seizure, Manish had surrendered in the police station. Since then Manish was kept in jail.
6 cases were registered against Manish in TN
In the month of August this year, Patna Civil Court had given big relief to Manish. The court had ordered not to take Manish back to Tamil Nadu jail. Then lawyer Shivanandan Bharati had said that a total of 6 cases were registered against Manish in Tamil Nadu, on which he had got default bail. After the civil court’s decision, Manish did not have to go to Tamil Nadu jail. He was kept in Beur jail of Patna. His appearances were to be made during the hearing in many cases. Whereas in the cases registered in Tamil Nadu, the hearing took place through video conferencing.
Supporters were seen pleading ‘don’t cry, don’t cry’ After the decision of Patna Civil Court, Gaju’s happiness was seen among Manish’s supporters. However, when Manish came out of the court premises, he was seen crying while supporters were showering flowers. During this, Manish’s supporters were also seen pleading ‘Don’t cry, don’t cry’.
I am a soldier’s son, not a Chara Chor’s: Kashyap
At the same time, the anger of the YouTuber was also seen during his appearance in the Patna court in the month of September. In anger, Lalu had vented his anger on the family. Manish had said, “I was silent for 6 months, but now this is too much.” I am made to sit between a bald person and a drug addict. They blow on my face. I start having a headache but these people (police) do nothing.
Manish had said that one day we will form the government and show how the government is run. An attempt has been made to bend me, but I am a soldier’s son, not a fodder thief. I will not bow down before these people. This handcuff has been handed over to an honest man. My grandfather fought in the war with China, my father fought in the war with Pakistan.
Let us tell you that the Economic Offences Unit had registered 4 cases against Manish. In two of these cases, Manish Kashyap appeared in Patna Civil Court in the month of August. The first case was of making viral the fake video of beating of Bihari labourers in Tamil Nadu and the second case was of using derogatory words, the video of which had gone viral.
