Guwahati, June 8

Kargil war veteran Md Sanaullah, who was declared a “foreigner” by a tribunal in Assam last month, walked out of a detention centre today, a day after the Gauhati High Court granted him bail.

After his release, Sanaullah was taken to the office of the Kamrup SP at Amingaon to complete formalities, as per directions of the court, a senior official said. Later in the day, his family members and well-wishers escorted him to his home in the Boko area of the district, the official said. The Foreigners’ Tribunal at Boko had declared Sanaullah a “foreigner” on May 23 and sent him to the detention centre. — PTI
