The four accused were in jail since 2013. They had approached High Court for relief after their bail plea was rejected by a special court.

The Maharashtra Anti-Terrorism Squad(ATS) initially accused Students Islamic Movement of India (SIMI) to be behind the attack, but a 2013 chargesheet put the onus on the right wing group Abhinav Bharat.
