New Delhi: The country's largest court on Thursday informed that it will hear a plea seeking immediate release of Rohingya refugees arrested in Jammu on March 25. The court also said that it will also ban any order of the centre to extradite those refugees to Myanmar. The bench of Chief Justice S A Bobde was hearing the case. The bench hearing also includes A.S. Bopanna and V. Ramasubrahman.
It may be mentioned that the matter was sought to be heard expeditiously by senior advocate Prashant Bhushan. Prashant Bhushan, on behalf of the petitioner, had said that these Rohingya refugees are likely to be extradited. In the case, Solicitor General Tushar Mehta told the court that Prashant Bhushan is telling wrong facts, but the matter should be heard.
After hearing both sides, the Chief Justice has said that the case will be heard next Thursday. The plea has been requested to direct the central government to issue refugee identity cards through the Foreign Regional Registration Office (FRRO) for Rashah residing in informal camps. Rohingya refugee Mohammad Salimullah has sought to issue an order to prevent the implementation of any order to deport Rohingya refugees imprisoned in Jammu jail in a petition filed through lawyer Prashant Bhushan.
