Mysuru: Following the decision of Mysuru Bar Association not to defend Nalini Balakumar, who has been charged with sedition for holding “Free Kashmir” placard during a demonstration at Manasagangothri, Anees Pasha, President of People’s Lawyers’ Guild, Davanagere, is said to have offered to appear in Court for her.
Nalini had displayed the controversial placard during a protest on Jan. 8 inside Manasagangothri (campus of Mysore University) and the Jayalakshmipuram Police had booked a suo-moto case against her on Jan. 9 as reports of the placard hit headlines. Advocate Pruthvi Kiran helped Nalini in securing an anticipatory bail.
