HC relief for Israeli girl held in cartridge case

Mumbai: The Bombay High Court has discharged an Israeli national, arrested at the international airport here last October after two live cartridges were found in her backpack, noting that it was not a "conscious possession".
Nurit Toker was arrested on October 27, 2011 at the Mumbai Airport. Toker, in India on a holiday, was on her way to Kathmandu. She had to spend four days in the police custody before the magistrate's court granted her bail.
She then approached the High Court, seeking to quash the criminal case registered against her. According to Toker, she had been given an M-16 assault rifle during her compulsory military service in Israel which ended in October.
