Court to hear students’ bail pleas today

Kozhikode: The bail petitions of two students Fasal and Shuhaib, arrested on charge of UPA , would be heard by The Principal Sessions Court on Monday here.

Earlier on Saturday, advocate M K Dineshan appearing for the students argued the police could not charge UAPA against somebody for supporting a banned party.

“The police did not seize any documents from the students linking them to the banned CPI (Maoist). The case was registered based on police’s misunderstanding about the youths,” The New Indian Express quoted him as saying.  

For detailed hearing on the bail plea, the court postponed the case to Monday.
