Supreme Court sits Sunday on Delhi curbs and detentions

A bench of Justices Joymalya Bagchi and V Mohana convenes a rare Sunday sitting to take up two petitions from Saturday's crackdown: a habeas corpus plea challenging the preventive detention of opposition leaders, and a contempt petition alleging the authorities flouted Friday's order against a blanket metro and train shutdown. The contempt plea names Union Home Secretary Govind Mohan, Delhi Police Commissioner Anurag Kumar and DMRC chairperson D Thara, after DMRC trimmed its closure list from 57 stations to 45 but kept the curbs in place.
