Bombay HC Acquits GN Saibaba, Refuses To Stay Its Decision

Deccan Chronicle  

Mumbai: The Nagpur bench of the Bombay High Court acquitted former professor of Delhi University G.N. Soon after the court acquitted Saibaba and others, the Maharashtra government moved an application seeking stay on the judgment for six weeks.

The sessions court had held that Saibaba and two other accused were in possession of naxal literature with the intent and purpose of circulation amongst underground naxlites at Gadchiroli and residents of the district with the aim to incite the people to resort to violence.
