Mumbai: The police on Friday filed a chargesheet against Republic TV editor-in-chief Arnab Goswami and two others in a 2018 abetment of suicide case.

The chargesheet was filed before a court in Alibaug in Raigad district, where the case for alleged abetment of suicide of interior designer Anvay Naik and his mother Kumud has been registered. Besides Goswami, the other two accused named in the chargesheet are Firoze Sheikh and Nitish Sarda, said special public prosecutor Pradeep Gharat.

As many as 65 persons are named as witnesses, he added. Incidentally, Goswami had moved the Bombay high court on Thursday seeking a stay on the filing of the chargesheet, but the petition is yet to be heard.

Goswami, Sheikh and Sarda were arrested by the Alibaug police on November 4 in the case, but they got bail from the Supreme Court on November 11. Anvay Naik and his mother Kumud committed suicide in 2018, allegedly because of non-payment of dues by firms of Goswami and the other two accused.
