Telangana High Court Permits Dileep Reddy to Travel to US
A man named Konatham Dileep Reddy, who is part of a social media group, was initially told he couldn't travel to the United States.
He had been accused of something, and there were notices stopping him from leaving the country.
He wanted to go to a special event to honor his father.
The court looked at his case and decided he could go.
They said everyone has a right to travel, even if they are in trouble with the law.
The court referenced earlier cases to support their decision.
The court decided that stopping him would be unfair since it was for a personal reason.
The court also noted that he had traveled abroad before.
Telangana High Court allowed BRS social media activist Konatham Dileep Reddy to travel to the US.
Reddy was initially denied travel due to 10 FIRs and active look-out circulars (LOCs).
The court cited the right to travel under Article 21.
The court referenced previous cases, including Sumit Mehta v. State of NCT of Delhi and Menaka Gandhi v. Union of India.
The court noted that Reddy had previously traveled abroad with a similar suspension of the LOC in October 2024.
