The National Investigation Agency (NIA) on Thursday opposed in the Bombay High Court the bail plea of professor Hany Babu, an accused in the Elgar Parishad-Maoist links case, arguing he actively participated in activities to promote Naxalism and wanted to overthrow the government.
A division bench of Justices N. M. Jamdar and N. R. Borkar was hearing Babu's bail plea.
Additional Solicitor General Anil Singh, appearing for the NIA, told the court Babu was a member of the banned terror outfit Communist Party of India (Maoist) and the prosecution has seized material from his laptop to show he was in constant contact with other accused in the case.
