Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the legality of the petitioner's arrest and subsequent custody under the National Investigation Agency Act, 2008 and the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act, 1967. The Court held that the extension of police custody and the rejection of bail were justified under Section 43D(2)(b) of the 1967 Act, which allows for extended investigation periods in cases involving unlawful associations. The Court dismissed the Special Leave Petition, affirming the lower courts' decisions regarding the petitioner's detention and bail applications.
