#SupremeCourt hears PIL assailing detention of migrant Muslim workers from #WestBengal, over suspicion of their being #Bangladeshi citizens

Bench: Justices Surya Kant, Joymalya Bagchi and Vipul M Pancholi Adv Prashant Bhushan (for petitioner): Notices served. One of the ladies who had been pushed out, her family filed habeas corpus petition in HC. In the last hearing, after this Court issued notice, ASG for the govt said to the HC that because this matter is pending, therefore don't deal with it. Result is - this lady has been forcibly pushed out of the country without anybody determining that she is a foreigner. Just because she is Bengali-speaking. There has to be some agreement with Bangladesh govt, otherwise pushing out violates international law.
