Anna Hazare aide Kiran Bedi to be sent to Tihar Jail?
"I could be sent to Tihar Jail any moment," read Kiran Bedi's tweet.
"I was granted bail but I refused," read the tweet.
Anna Hazare was arrested under Section 107/51 after he was detained at his residence even before he could go to the venue where he would continue his fast. Along with Hazare, his supporters in his anti corruption movement, Kiran Bedi, Arvind Kejriwal, Shanti Bhushan and Manish Sisodia were also put under preventive arrest by the Delhi police.
Meanwhile, one of the RTI activists and supporter of Team Anna has been shot dead.
Anna would only be granted bail if he appears in front of a magistrate. The magistrate will decide if he and his supporters should be sent to judicial custody or given bail.
