Hardik Patel Abduction

In an affidavit filed before the Gujarat High Court today, an aide of Patel quota agitation leader Hardik Patel claimed that he had reasons to believe that Hardik had been abducted on September 22 and that was why he filed a habeas corpus petition.

Challenging Hardik Patel's abduction claims, the Gujarat government today told the High Court that the Patel agitation spearhead's close aides were in constant touch with the young leader when he allegedly went missing last month.

Expressing doubts about his abduction claim, the Gujarat High Court today came down heavily on Patel quota spearhead Hardik Patel and warned him and his lawyer of contempt of court stating that they "misused" the court proceedings.

Hardik Patel appeared today in the Gujarat High Court, which asked him to detail in writing his allegations of being abducted and illegally detained by the state police. For about 40 minutes, the 22-year-old politician sat in court and wrote on three sheets of paper, which he submitted in sealed cover.

Patel quota agitation leader Hardik Patel, who went missing last night and alleged he was abducted by some unknown persons, will go to Gujarat High Court tomorrow morning, his lawyer said.

Armed men had abducted him and held him captive overnight in a car, alleged Hardik Patel as he surfaced on Wednesday evening, many hours after a Gujarat court ordered the state government to produce him by Thursday.
