There are rules and laws but the essence of irony is the ability to make harsh laws and use them selectively. You cannot simply put UAPA on a journalist. Why was he arrested? He was arrested because he was sharing a cab with four other people from Kerala in which a few of them happened to be from PFI," said Sanjay Hegde, senior advocate of the Supreme Court.
