#SupremeCourt to shortly hear plea by a 42 year old spiritual practitioner challenging Kerala High Court order where habeas corpus plea seeking release of his spiritual live in partner from her parent's forceful custody was denied. Plea states HC order contrary to #HadiyaCase
Supreme Court: What is the evidence that you are a spiritual guru? What is the evidence regarding this apart from statement by you?

Senior Adv Gopal Sankaranarayanan: My antecedent has also been directed to be probed. This is what was frowned upon by the Hadiya verdict

Senior Adv Gopal Sankaranarayanan: There is my sworn affidavit

CJI: show us the complaint made by the girl to police saying she is in illegal detection?

Sankaranarayanan points to letter by girl to state human rights commission
Supreme Court to take up the plea next week

SC: HC may proceed to entertain the matter before it

Sankaranarayanan: Then there will be parallel proceedings

CJI: we want to see what HC does tomorrow
