Justice S. Ravindra Bhat, who accompanied Chief Justice of India U.U. Lalit on the Supreme Court, on August 29 recused himself from hearing a plea by activist Gautam Navlakha to be shifted from Taloja jail to house arrest.
Mr. Navlakha, who is in his seventies, is an accused in the Bhima Koregaon case.
CJI Lalit said the case would be listed before an appropriate Bench of which Justice Bhat is not a member.
