Jedhe had filed a bail application claiming that he had nothing to do with the sex racket run by Varsha Shirsath, and he had no criminal record. Special Judge and Additional Sessions Judge Kavita D. Shirbhate, however, dismissed the bail plea citing the need for a detailed investigation into the facts that police have found so far.

According to the prosecution, the minor girl came in contact with Varsha Shirsath when the girl was 14 years old, and subsequently Varsha introduced the girl to Anil Jedhe. This duo initially lured the girl with money and then pushed her into prostitution at various lodges in Pune and Chinchwad. The prosecution also submitted that a fake Aadhaar card had been prepared in her name, showing her as an adult.

Current developments suggest the case may extend far beyond the initial arrest because the girl has told police about at least 17 other girls who are stuck in the sex racket, according to the court order. While rejecting the bail, the court cited the need for further investigation into this aspect and noted that the chargesheet had not yet been filed.
