‘Poor Hygiene’: Influencer Sharmishta Panoli Files Plea In Kolkata Court Over Jail Conditions

Social media influencer and law student Sharmishta Panoli, currently lodged at Alipore women’s correctional home, is facing deteriorating health and denial of basic rights, her advocate Md Samimuddin has claimed. Arrested on May 30 for allegedly hurting religious sentiments through a now-deleted Instagram video, Panoli reportedly suffers from kidney stones and lacks access to hygiene, newspapers, and magazines in custody. Her legal team has filed a plea seeking better conditions and access to basic rights. ‘Sharmishta is innocent. We are trying our best to get her out on bail before June 13,’ her advocate told reporters outside the court.#sharmishtapanoli #aliporejail #religioussentiments #instagramcontroversy #humanrights #bailplea #indianjustice #freedomofspeech #influencerarrest #custodyconditions #legalbattle #kidneystones #basicrights #india #kolkatapolice #socialmedia #lawstudent #judicialcustody #justiceforpanoli #tmc #westbengal #toi #toibharat
