Maoists Plot Probe: Pune police maintains they have strong proof

In a major setback for the five activists accused in the Urban Naxal Case, the Supreme Court has refused to intervene. It said that accused persons do not have a say in which investigating agency should probe the case. The apex court further observed that the arrests were not because of dissent of five rights activists but there is prime facie material to show their link with banned CPI (maoist). The court has ordered to continue the house arrest of the activists for four weeks.
