A division bench of the Madras high court on Monday issued notice to the anti-terrorism Q-branch of the Tamil Nadu police on the bail applications moved by Tamil Nationalist Movement president P Nedumaran and general secretary Suba Veerapandian.
The bench comprising Justice K Dinakar and Justice Ibrahim Kalimullah gave the Q-branch two weeks to file its counter.
Detained under the Prevention of Terrorism Act, Nedumaran has been housed in Cuddalore Central Jail and Suba Veerapandian at the Chennai Central Prison.
The two have also challenged POTA in the Supreme Court. Marumalarchi Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam general secretary Vaiko, another POTA detainee, has challenged sections 21(1) and (3) of the act in the apex court.
