NEW DELHI: The Supreme Court on Friday rejected the NIA’s application and ordered social activist Gautam Navlakha to be put under house arrest within 24 hours after shifting him from Taloja jail in Navi Mumbai.
Navlakha is lodged in jail in connection with the Elgar Parishad-Maoist link case.
The anti-terror probe agency had sought recall of the SC order of November 10 for placing Navlakha under house arrest, citing his links to Maoists and Pakistan’s ISI.
The bench of Justices KM Joseph and Hrishikesh Roy, however, ordered some additional security measures to be put in place where Navlakha will be kept.ALSO READ | Bhima Koregaon case: Bombay HC grants bail to activist Anand Teltumbde
