Gitanjali J. Angmo, wife of activist Sonam Wangchuk, has moved the Delhi High Court challenging an order refusing intervention in his treatment at Safdarjung Hospital. She alleges the decision unlawfully confines him without arrest and sidelines both from crucial medical decisions.
The Supreme Court questioned the Centre on the “application of mind” behind Sonam Wangchuk’s detention under the National Security Act. ASG KM Nataraj defended the order, saying preventive detention cannot be compared to court judgments; rejoinder arguments will continue Monday at 2 PM.
