Senior Advocate Harish Salve appeared for Goyal along with team from Naik Naik & Co including Managing Partner Ameet Naik and Partner Abhishek Kale.
He argued that Goyal was seeking bail only on humanitarian grounds.
Limiting his bail to stay in hospital would mean that he will not be able to meet his wife who was critically ill, Salve argued.
Salve also said that during and after chemotherapy, he will require clean sterile environment and he cannot be sent back to jail.
He further pleaded the court to protect Goyal’s fundamental right under Article 21.
“He has not been convicted, these are only allegations against him. Investigation is ongoing, when it is complete they will file chargesheet and then trial will happen. If he is convicted, then he wil be sent to jail. But till then.. he has done no wrong”, Salve said.
