SC To Hear Plea Of Gautam Navlakha, NIA In Elgar Parishad-Maoist Link Case
The Supreme Court will hear on Friday a fresh plea by Gautam Navlakha, who has not been placed under house arrest despite an apex court directive in the Elgar Parishad-Maoist link case, even as the NIA moved the apex court seeking vacation of its order, contending the activist does not deserve any special treatment.
A bench headed by Chief Justice D Y Chandrachud on Thursday took note of the submissions of senior lawyer Nitya Ramakrishnan, appearing for Navlakha, that the apex court’s November 10 direction to shift him from Navi Mumbai's Taloja prison and place him under house arrest owing to his worsening health has not been compiled with so far.
Solicitor General (SG) Tushar Mehta, appearing for the NIA, said the accused, instead of giving the address of his house, has preferred the address of the library-cum-office of the Communist Party.
“The Communist Party, in any case, is not a banned organisation,” Ramakrishnan said, seeking implementation of the apex court order.
Meanwhile, the anti-terror probe agency moved the SC seeking vacation of its order for house arrest, saying Navlakha being a charge-sheeted accused in a case involving a threat to national security and integrity, does not deserve any extra leeway.
