Ranya Rao gets default bail in gold smuggling case but will remain in jail

Ranya Rao, an accused in a gold smuggling case, has been granted default bail by the court due to the prosecution's failure to file the chargesheet within the stipulated time. However, despite securing default bail in this particular case, Ranya Rao remains in judicial custody. This continued detention is attributed to her involvement in other cases, specifically charges filed under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA), which are still pending against her. The situation highlights how an individual can be granted bail in one case but remain incarcerated due to parallel legal proceedings under different statutes.
