The High Court of Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir has quashed the detention under black law Public Safety Act (PSA) of a youth, Abdul Hussain Ganai, in Srinagar.
High Court Justice Sanjay Dhar after consider-ing the arguments from both sides observed that the non-consideration or unreasonably delayed consideration of the representation violates the Constitution and quashed the detention of Abdul Hussain Ganaie under black law.
Such non-compliance renders the detention unsustainable in law, he added. The detenue, Abdul Hussain Ganaie, is directed to be released from custody immediately, the court order said.—KMS
