JAMMU, Feb 23 (PTI): The Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh High Court on Monday reserved its order on a petition contesting the detention of AAP MLA Mehraj Malik.

Malik, who is the AAP’s Jammu and Kashmir unit president, was detained under the stringent Public Safety Act (PSA) on September 8 last year for allegedly disturbing public order and was subsequently lodged in the Kathua jail.

On September 24, he filed a habeas corpus petition in the high court, challenging his detention and seeking Rs 5 crore as compensation.
