Special NIA court had turned down activist’s pleas
Father Stan Swamy, an accused in the Bhima-Koregaon violence case, moved the Bombay High Court on Monday, challenging the rejection of his bail plea.
The appeal mentioned the increase in COVID-19 cases in prison and that custodial interrogation is no longer needed as the chargesheet in the case has been filed. The Jesuit priest and activist, who turned 84 on Monday, was arrested from Ranchi on October 9, 2020, and is currently lodged at Taloja Central Jail. Father Swamy suffers from hearing loss, Parkinson’s disease, and lumbar spondylosis.
