Activist Teesta Setalvad, In Jail Since June, Gets Supreme Court Relief | Read
Activist Teesta Setalvad, in jail since June for alleged conspiracy to "destabilise the government" after the 2002 Gujarat riots, has been granted interim bail by the Supreme Court. She'd gone to the High Court, but on August 3 it posted the matter to six weeks later - something the top court didn't particularly appreciate. Her plea for regular bail will continue to be heard by the Gujarat High Court.
