In a relief, the Bombay high court on July 4 admitted the bail applications of three accused doctors arrested for allegedly abetting the suicide of Dr Payal Tadvi in May.

Trio have moved the high court after they were denied bail by the special court last month. Their bail plea came up for hearing before Justice Sadhna Jadhav, who adjourned it for further hearing, after Mumbai police sought two weeks time to carry out investigation in the case.

The next date of hearing is July 16. Accused Hema Ahuja, Bhakti Meher and Ankita Khandelwal, seniors to Payal in the post-graduate course at T N Topiwala National Medical College, were arrested for allegedly ragging Tadvi, leading to her suicide inside her room on May 22.
