SC sets aside Gujarat HC order granting furlough to Asaram Bapu's son Narayan Sai

A single-judge bench of the Gujarat High Court had ordered the release of Sai on furlough for two weeks on June 24, 2021.

The Supreme Court on Wednesday set aside the order of the Gujarat High Court granting a 14-day furlough to rape convict Narayan Sai, son of self-styled godman Asaram Bapu.

A bench of Justices DY Chandrachud and BV Nagarathna allowed the appeal of the Gujarat government challenging the June 24 order of the high court granting furlough to Sai.
