SC Allows Tarigami To Return To Srinagar

A bench headed by Chief Justice Ranjan Gogoi said that the Communist Party of India-Marxist leader does not need any other permission to go home if the doctors at AIIMS allowed him. However, the bench declined to pass any interim orders on his detention and easing his movement in the valley.

The hospital has also discharged Tarigami and currently he is staying at the Jammu and Kashmir guest house here. CPM leader Sitaram Yechury’s advocate and senior counsel Raju Ramachandran has submitted that the AIIMS after discharging Tarigami has advised him to report to AIIMS or any hospital of convenience for follow up action after a month.

On being queried as to why he is in the Jammu and Kashmir Guest House at New Delhi, it was stated that it is not very clear that as to whether he would be allowed to go back to his home in Srinagar, to which Solicitor General Tushar Mehta submitted that there are no restrictions for Tarigami to return Srinagar.
