Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the detention of the appellant's husband under Section 3(2) of the National Security Act, 1980, affirming the High Court's dismissal of the habeas corpus petition. The Court found that there was no evidence of a representation made prior to the detention order, nor was there any material to suggest that the Ministry of Home Affairs had been approached regarding the detention. The Court concluded that adequate materials existed to justify the detention, thereby rejecting the appellant's claims.
