Supreme Court of India refused to release passport of Teesta Setalvad without specific travel plans, permitting fresh plea later. Bench of Dipankar Datta, Satish Chandra Sharma, and Alok Aradhe heard matter.
The Supreme Court directed that Teesta Setalvad’s plea for passport release be heard by a three judge bench. Noting her bail was granted by a similar bench, the court held parity in bench strength was appropriate for consideration.
