SC rejects NIA's plea for cancellation of UNLF activist's bail plea
Times of India | TNN | Nov 5, 2011, 04.20AM IST, New Delhi:
Referring to its earlier ruling that "mere membership of banned organisation is not a punishable offence", the Supreme Court on Friday rejected a plea by National Investigation Agency (NIA) to cancel the bail granted to M Londhoni Devi, wife of a top commander of the banned Manipuri outfit United National Liberation Front (UNLF).
When he alleged that she had received huge amounts from UNLF, the bench examined the documents and found that she had received only Rs 15,000 and inferred that it could be towards her upkeep.
"She is married to a person who might be involved in the alleged illegal activities of UNLF. The husband would surely give money for the upkeep of the wife, but the question is whether she used it for anti-national activities," the bench said.
The bench upheld Gauhati High Court's order granting bail to Londhoni Devi but asked the trial court to impose appropriate conditions to ensure that she did not jump bail and abscond like other UNLF cadre.
