NEW DELHI: Gitanjali Angmo, wife of climate activist Sonam Wangchuk, moved the Supreme Court on Friday seeking his release.This comes two days after she reached out to President Droupadi Murmu on Wednesday to seek her intervention for the release of the climate activist, who has been lodged in Jodhpur jail in Rajasthan since being taken into custody following the September 24 violent clashes in Ladakh.In a three-page letter addressed to the President Murmu, Angmo alleged “witch-hunt” against her husband for espousing the cause of the people over the past four years and said she is completely unaware about her husband’s condition.Wangchuk was detained under National Security Act (NSA) on September 26, two days after violent clashes in Leh town left four persons dead and scores of others injured. The violence broke out during the protests in support of the demands, including statehood for Ladakh and the the region’s inclusion in Sixth Schedule of the Constitution. Gitanjali J Angmo, who is also the CEO of Himalayan Institute of Alternatives (HAIL), on Thursday also slammed the Centre and alleged police torture against the people of Ladakh after the September 24 violence in the Union Territory.Comparing the current situation in Ladakh to that during British India, she said that the Union Home Ministry is “misusing” the Ladakh Police.“Is India really free? In 1857, 24,000 Britishers used 135,000 Indian sepoys to oppress 300 million Indians under orders from the Queen. Today, a dozen administrators are misusing 2400 Ladakhi police to oppress and torture 3 lakh Ladakhis under the orders of the MHA,” Gitanjali wrote on X.
