Activists Can Stay Out Of Jail, Order Needs To Be Examined: Supreme Court | Read

The Supreme Court on Friday said it would not immediately interfere with a Delhi High Court order granting bail to student-activists Natasha Narwal, Devangana Kalita and Asif Iqbal Tanha, who are accused of conspiracy over the Delhi riots and have been charged under anti-terror law UAPA. However, a two-member bench of Justices Hemant Gupta and V Ramasubramanian also said the Supreme Court would examine the bail order, noting that this case could have "pan-India ramifications" because of the way UAPA, or the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act, had been interpreted.
