B-school student released from PS
He is now set to get back to the campus and resume studies, his counsel said.
TOI wrote on Tuesday how red tape delayed Toppannawar's release despite being granted bail against a bond of Rs 50,000. The family initially struggled to find a local guardian to sign the surety, and then the passport he submitted before cops as a bail prerequisite was inside his sealed hostel room, causing the delay in completing his bail bond procedures.
"We told police that since the passport was inside the room sealed by them, it was already in their custody. They finally agreed," said Kanishk Ravindran, his counsel.

Following his release, the student from Karnataka is staying at a rented accommodation near the campus. "The hostel room allotted to him is still sealed, and he doesn't want to stay inside the institute now to avoid further complications. So he is putting up at rented accommodation with his parents," said Ravindran. He added that the second-year student was eager to resume studies since he has missed classes for two weeks.
An institute official clarified that there are no legal grounds that can prohibit him from attending classes but he will have to appeal before the institute with a copy of the bail order.
