Alan and Thawaha, activists of Communist Party of India (Marxist), were arrested by Kozhikode police last Friday on suspected Maoist links.
The Kozhikode Sessions Court dismissed their bail applications observing that the books, pamphlets and banners claimed to have been seized from them by police prima facie showed their association with the banned Maoist organization.
Challenging the order of the Kozhikode Sessions Court which denied bail to Alan Suhaib and Thwaha Fazal for offences under the Unlawful Activities Prevention Act, they have filed appeals in the High Court of Kerala.
The Sessions Court's order is challenged as 'illegal and irregular' on the ground that bail was denied without entering into any finding that they had taken part in any activities of the banned organization.
The single bench of Justice Sunil Thomas on Friday adjourned the hearing of the appeals till November 14, asking the prosecution to give their response in the meantime.
