Overview
- A bench of Justices Aravind Kumar and P B Varale adjourned the matter after being told Solicitor General Tushar Mehta was unwell.
- The Court previously flagged discrepancies in translations attributed to Wangchuk and directed the Union to file true versions.
- Justices said they will review video evidence from a pen drive after counsel reported Wangchuk had been shown only thumbnails.
- Counsel Kapil Sibal argues the detention relies on extraneous or non‑existent material, with alleged incendiary lines absent from the Union’s translations.
- The case stems from Wangchuk’s September 26, 2025 NSA detention following protests in Ladakh that left four dead and nearly 100 injured, and the bench had earlier indicated it could reserve judgment after the next hearing.
