Mehbooba Mufti moves HC for J&K undertrials' return
The Statesman Kolkata
|November 04, 2025
PDP president and former CM Mehbooba Mufti on Monday filed a Public Interest Litigation (PIL) in the J&K and Ladakh High Court, seeking repatriation of all undertrials currently lodged in jails outside J&K.
The PIL urged immediate judicial intervention to address what she described as a "humanitarian crisis" affecting hundreds of undertrial prisoners from the Union Territory.
The petition seeks the repatriation of all undertrials currently lodged in jails outside J&K, including Agra, Bareilly, Haryana, and other states, back to prisons within the region. Mehbooba claimed that detention in distant locations violates fundamental rights under Articles 14 and 21 of the Constitution, severely restricting prisoners' access to courts, legal counsel, and family members.
