India Temporary bail for SAIBABA

The Bombay High Court today extended by around three months the temporary bail granted to former Delhi University Professor G.N. Saibaba, arrested for alleged Maoist links, considering his deteriorating health condition. On June 30, the High Court granted him temporary bail for three months to undergo medical treatment for multiple ailments, including a degenerative spine disease. The bail was granted by a Division Bench headed by Chief Justice Mohit Shah, which had converted into public interest litigation (PIL) a letter written by activist Purnima Upadhyay. — PTI
