Jet Airways founder Naresh Goyal, facing charges in a ₹538 crore alleged fraud case, emotionally appealed to a Mumbai court, expressing a loss of hope and deeming it "better to die in jail." Goyal, arrested by the Enforcement Directorate in September, cited deteriorating health, painful conditions, and his wife's advanced-stage cancer. Tearfully, he requested to remain in jail, stating, "I have lost every hope of life." The court, noting his physical state, assured care while directing his lawyers to address health concerns. Goyal's bail plea will be further examined on January 16 in connection with the Canara Bank fraud case.
