Sonam Wangchuk's wife, Gitanjali Angmo, argued in the Supreme Court that her husband's detention under the National Security Act was unlawful. Her counsel, Kapil Sibal, contended that the detaining authority failed to apply its mind, relying on "copy-pasted" recommendations from the SSP and withholding crucial video evidence. Sibal argued this violated Wangchuk's right to effective representation and due process, citing stale incidents and a lack of independent application of mind by the District Magistrate. The court is reviewing the legality of the detention order.
