NDTV
Himayat Baig was the only person to be convicted in the February 2010 blast at the German Bakery, a popular eatery in Pune.
The Bombay High Court on Wednesday sought to know from the Maharashtra prison authorities how long they plan to keep Himayat Baig, convicted in the 2010 Pune blast case, in solitary confinement.
A division bench of Justices Revati Mohite Dere and Shyam Chandak directed additional public prosecutor Prajakta Shinde to take instructions from the Inspector General of Prison department on whether Baig could be moved from the 'anda cell' (solitary confinement) to a high-security cell in the jail.
The court was hearing a petition filed by Baig seeking to be shifted out of solitary confinement.
