After spending more than 17 years behind bars, gangster-turned-politician Arun Gawli on Wednesday (September 3, 2025) walked out of the Nagpur Central Jail days with the Supreme Court granting him bail in a 2007 murder case, officials said.
The apex court granted bail to 76-year-old Gawli, who was serving life imprisonment for the murder of Mumbai Shiv Sena corporator Kamlakar Jamsandekar. A Bench of Justices M. M. Sundresh and N. Kotiswar Singh noted that Gawli was in jail for over 17 years and his appeal was pending before it.
