The Supreme Court on Friday was shocked to see Jammu and Kashmir Liberation Front (JKLF) commander, Yasin Malik, ready to appear before it as it noted that there was no such order passed by the top court asking him to appear in person.
Malik, who was convicted in a terror funding case and sentenced to life imprisonment, appeared before the apex court after reportedly refusing to do so virtually.
SG Mehta chose to write to the Home Secretary stating that neither had the top court sought Malik's personal presence nor was any permission taken from any authority of the Supreme Court to produce him in court.
