The prosecution’s case was that Doohan had entered the resort along with her accomplice by producing a fake identity card, thereby, committing the offence of cheating by impersonation.
Doohan was booked for cheating under Sections 419 and 420 of the Indian Penal Code.
She was allegedly found with a list of MLAs of some other political party who were also lodged in the same resort and she purportedly had mala fide intention of harming them at the behest of her own party, the prosecution said.
The prosecution also opposed Doohan’s bail plea on the ground that given her political background, it would be easy for her to abscond or threaten the witnesses in the case.
Doohan contended that she was innocent and had been falsely implicated. She sought bail contending that she had no criminal antecedents and was willing to abide by restrictions imposed by the court.
