The Bombay High Court on Friday extended by around three months the temporary bail granted to former Delhi University professor G.N. Saibaba, arrested for alleged Maoist links, considering his deteriorating health condition.
On June 30, the High Court granted him temporary bail for three months to undergo medical treatment for multiple ailments.
“His health has improved. If treatment is not received, he’ll go back into a situation worse than what he was suffering from,” senior advocate Gayatri Singh told the court.
The bench, while extending the temporary bail given to Saibaba till December 31, also directed that the earlier Rs 50,000 bail bond shall continue. It also gave liberty to Saibaba to move the Nagpur Bench of the High Court seeking regular bail.
