Leh Violence: No relief for Sonam Wangchuk as SC defers hearing for October 14; Centre served notice

New Delhi: The Supreme Court on Monday issued notices to the Centre, Union Territory of Ladakh and the Superintendent of Police, Jodhpur Central Jail, on a plea filed by Gitanjali Angmo, wife of climate activist Sonam Wangchuk, challenging his detention under the National Security Act (NSA) and seeking his release. The matter has been posted for hearing on October 14.

Senior advocate Kapil Sibal, appearing for Angmo, argued that the grounds of detention had not been supplied to the family. In response, Solicitor General Tushar Mehta stated that the grounds of detention had already been served to the detainee and assured the Court he would examine serving a copy to his wife. Wangchuk was arrested on September 26 for allegedly provoking the youth, which led to a violent protest in Leh.
