|December 09, 2025
The union Government today opposed a plea seeking permission for Ladakh activist Sonam Wangchuk to appear before the Supreme Court via video conferencing from Jodhpur Central Jail in the hearing on the challenge to his detention under the National Security Act (NSA).
-
The habeas corpus petition has been filed under Article 32 by Dr Gitanjali Angmo, Wangchuk's wife, questioning the legality of his detention following the September Ladakh protests for statehood, which later turned violent.
The matter came up before a bench of Justice Aravind Kumar and Justice NV Anjaria, but could not be taken up as both sides' counsel were engaged in another hearing.
