GHC to hear on Sanaullah’s citizenship today

The Gauhati High Court, today, is set to hear on the complaintregistered against Kargil veteran Mohammad Sanaullah being declared a foreignerby the Boko Foreigners' Tribunal.

It has come to light that top notch Supreme Court advocate Indira Jaisingh will defend the case for Sanaullah.

Gaurav Gogoi, the Congress Lok Sabha MP from Koliabor in Assam, has written a letter to Home Minister Amit Shah seeking his intervention in the detention of retired Army officer Mohammad Sanaullah.

"Sanaullah was in service during the Kargil War. In 2014, the President of India gave him a medal. But now he has been kept in a detention camp. Injustice has been done to him. I request Amit Shah to take cognizance of this matter and help provide justice to Sanaullah and his family," the MP said.

Mohammad Sanaullah retired as an honorary Lieutenant in the Army and was arrested soon after the Assam Police Border Organisation in Guwahati summoned him on May 28. He was arrested and sent to a detention centre on May 28.
