The Supreme Court refused to entertain further the plea of Rajya Sabha MP Vaiko, seeking production of National Conference leader Farooq Abdullah before it and said the MDMK leader could challenge the order detaining the former Jammu and Kashmir chief minister under the Public Safety Act (PSA).
He (Abdullah) is under detention under the Public Safety Act,” a three-judge bench headed by Chief Justice Ranjan Gogoi said. “Nothing survives in this petition,” it added. Vaiko’s counsel questioned the conduct of the Jammu and Kashmir administration and claimed that few minutes before the apex court was scheduled to hear his petition on September 16, Abdullah was detained under the PSA.
