He also mentioned that the Vasai court observed that Sheezan's family and lawyer had no evidence for their arguments. Tarun was questioned whether Sheezan's family is planning to take the case to the High court. Replying to this, Tarun stated that he is prepared to take the case even if it goes to the Supreme court. However, Sheezan's lawyer Shailendra Mishra and the accused's mother and sisters, Falaq Naaz and Shafaq Naaz have been tight-lipped about the court's decision.
