MUMBAI: Major (retd.) Ramesh Upadhyay, accused in the 2008 Malegaon blast case, moved the Bombay HC after his application regarding the basis of his implication in the case under MCOCA filed under the RTI Act was not answered.
Advocate Mubin Solkar argued that the information was denied to Upadhyay as it was gathered by the ATS which was exempted under the RTI.
Solkar also told the court that once the information was passed on to the Home Department by the ATS it was information in possession of the department which was not exempted under the RTI. The petition will be heard on March 31, when State's counsels will reply.
