Kochi, Nov 9 : The High Court has directed the state government to release a woman, who is in jail under the Kerala Anti-Social Activities (Prevention) Act, 2007 after taking into consideration that her daughter was at an advanced stage of her pregnancy and there was no one to take care of her.

With her daughter in the advanced stage of pregnancy she approached the High Court and pleaded that there was none one else other than her to take care of her daughter. The High Court said it has to consider the peculiar circumstances under Article 21 of the Constitution of India, and said the petitioner has a superior rightunder Article 21 of the Constitution which can be invoked on justifiable grounds to protect her right to life and liberty. Taking these aspects into account, the court directed that the mother should be released on November 14. /IANS
