Ex Professor GN Saibaba To Stay In Jail In Maoists Link Case

GN Saibaba, the former Delhi University professor who has been serving a life term for allegedly having links with Maoists, will continue to remain in jail, the Supreme Court said today, suspending the Bombay High Court order on his acquittal. The top court issued notice to the accused on the Maharashtra government's plea challenging the high court order and listed the matter for hearing on December 8. The Supreme Court bench, which sat on a non-working day to hear the matter, rejected GN Saibaba's request for putting him under house arrest in view of his physical disability and health conditions. "My client is 90 per cent physically disabled, has multiple ailments. He has a 23-year-old daughter and a wife. His bones are touching his lungs, which is further complicating the things. Looking at these aspects, please do not drag him back into jai," senior advocate Basant, appearing for Mr Saibaba, told the court.
