Supreme Court adjourns hearing on bail pleas of activists in Elgar Parishad-Maoist links case, NIA challenges bail granted.
The Supreme Court on Thursday (February 6, 2025) adjourned hearing on the bail plea of advocate Surendra Gadling and activist Jyoti Jagtap arrested in the Elgar Parishad-Maoist links case.
A Bench of Justices M.M. Sundresh and Rajesh Bindal also deferred hearing on the petition filed by the National Investigation Agency (NIA) challenging the bail granted to activist Mahesh Raut.
He was given bail by the Bombay High Court but the order was stayed after the NIA sought stay on the verdict to challenge it before the Supreme Court.
Senior advocate Anand Grover, appearing for Gadling, refuted that the accused was delaying the trial and sought time to produce the records.
Senior advocate Mihir Desai, appearing for Jagtap and Raut, requested the Court to post the matter at the earliest.
Additional Solicitor General S.V. Raju, representing the NIA, submitted that the Bombay High Court’s order granting bail to Raut was “absolutely perverse.” The Supreme Court said it will take up all the matters together and adjourned the hearing.
Gadling was accused of providing aid to the Maoists and allegedly conspiring with various co-accused, including the ones absconding in the case.
