Writer and historian Ramachandra Guha has called for the immediate release of arrested Tamil publisher and political commentator Badri Seshadri.
Mr. Guha described the publisher’s arrest as being “inconsistent with the principles of natural justice”.
Mr. Seshadri was arrested from his house in Chennai, based on a complaint from Kaviyarasu, a lawyer from Kadur village, who lodged the complaint at the Kunnam police station in Perambalur district.
