A Supreme Court bench was told by Gautam Navlakha's lawyer that the top court directed National Investigation Agency (NIA) to file its reply in April but it has not submitted its response till date.
The Supreme Court on Friday asked the NIA to file its reply within four weeks to a plea by activist Gautam Navlakha, who is under house arrest at a Mumbai public library in the Elgar Parishad-Maoist links case, seeking a change of address.
A bench of Justices M M Sundresh and J B Pardiwala was told by Navlakha's lawyer that the Supreme Court had directed the National Investigation Agency (NIA) to file its reply in April but it has not submitted its response till date.
On November 10, 2022, the top court had allowed Navlakha, who was then lodged in Navi Mumbai's Taloja prison, to be placed under house arrest owing to his deteriorating health.
