What happens when an activist is arrested under India’s anti-terror law, the UAPA?

This episode examines the case of Kobad Ghandy — civil liberties advocate, tribal rights activist, and author of Fractured Freedom: A Prison Memoir — who spent years in prison following his 2009 arrest.

Through his experience, we explore:
• The Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA)
• Undertrial detention in India
• High-Risk Ward incarceration
• Bail restrictions under anti-terror statutes
• The distinction between dissent and unlawful activity

From prolonged pre-conviction detention to restrictions on lawyers, reading material, and medical care, this episode analyzes how India’s anti-terror framework operates in practice.

Where is the line between national security and civil liberty?

Welcome to Kollectively Vigilant, where we learn the law through true crime.
