GN Saibaba s release: The Supreme Court, on Saturday, in a special hearing suspended Bombay HC s order to release the ex-DU professor from jail in a Maoist links case.
The Supreme Court on Saturday suspended the decision of the Nagpur Bench of the Bombay High Court acquitting former Delhi University professor GN Saibaba in an alleged Maoist links case.
A Sessions Court in Gadchiroli had, in March 2017, convicted Saibaba and the others for alleged Maoist links and for indulging in activities amounting to waging war against the country.
While the bench said that it could not stay the order acquitting Saibaba, it directed for the case to be listed before an appropriate bench after the Chief Justice of India (CJI) provided his administrative approval.
