Famous choreographer Jani Master was recently arrested on rape charges. A female choreographer who had worked as his assistant filed the case, leading to his arrest by the police. He was charged under the POCSO Act, and when he initially applied for bail, the court rejected it.
Jani Master had been in police custody for the past few days. However, the Telangana High Court has now granted him bail. Earlier, the Rangareddy court had denied his bail application. Following these events, the central government also withdrew the National Best Choreographer award that had been announced for him.
With Jani Master, who stands accused of rape, now released on bail, there is keen interest in what his next steps will be. Nonetheless, the court has made it clear that the investigation and legal proceedings against him will continue.
