The writ petition filed by PAJSC chairman Techi Puru and vice chairman Tadak Nalo was quashed by Itanagar bench of the Guwahati High Court, on Thursday.

The plea filed by Puru and Nalo on June 2, challenged the detention order under APUAPA against them, which was earlier passed by the Deputy Commissioner cum District Magistrate of Itanagar Capital Region. The petitioners had claimed that they were not involved in the bandh call given by a few individuals leading to the passing of the detention orders. However, the Itanagar permanent bench of the Guwahati High Court said there was absence of supporting materials to suggest the factum of absconding and evading arrest by the petitioners.
