India, July 31 -- The Supreme Court on Wednesday refused to grant regular bail to self-styled godman Asaram Bapu on medical grounds in a 2013 rape case in Gujarat, even as it allowed him to approach the high court in case his health deteriorates. Asaram, who was convicted in the case and is serving life sentence, had in January got bail till March 31. Since then, the bail has been extended repeatedly. Earlier this month, the high court gave one more extension with a warning that it was the last relief.htc
