Bombay High Court stayed bail granted to Shiv Sena councillor Ramesh Mhatre in a Dombivali doctor assault case.
Mhatre was arrested for assaulting doctors and staff at a KDMC-run hospital in Dombivali on July 7, 2026.
The High Court found the lower court's bail order suffered from perversity and stayed it, ordering Mhatre to surrender to Vishnunagar police station by 5pm Sunday.
The assault followed a complaint that a pregnant woman was denied NICU admission due to bed shortage at Shastri Nagar Municipal Hospital.
