Hyderabad: The choreographer Shaik Jani Basha Jani Master, who was recently arrested on charges of sexual harassment, has been granted interim bail by the Ranga Reddy District Court. Jani Master is set to receive the National Film Award for his choreography in the song ‘Megham Karukkatha’ from the film ‘Thiruchitrambalam’. The choreographer had sought bail to attend the National Film Awards function.
The court granted him bail from October 6 to 10. Jani Master was arrested by Narsingi police after an assistant choreographer filed a complaint, alleging sexual harassment. Following the arrest, he was placed in judicial custody at Chanchalguda Jail. The interim bail will allow him temporary release, though the legal proceedings continue. The accused was booked for rape, criminal intimidation, and assault under sections 376(2)(n), 506 and 323 of the Indian Penal Code, and Section 5(l) r/w 6 of the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act was invoked.
