Summary The Gujarat High Court quashed the preventive detention order against the petitioner dated 05/03/2026, holding that the alleged criminal activities (two BNS offences for which bail was granted) do not adversely affect public order as required under the Gujarat Prevention of Anti-social Activities Act, 1985. The court distinguished between "law and order" disturbances and "public order" violations, ruling that mere individual criminal incidents without creating widespread public panic or insecurity cannot justify preventive detention. The petitioner was directed to be released immediately. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
