The Kerala Government is likely to withdraw the plea submitted before the Supreme Court to restore Unlawful Activities Prevention Act (UAPA) charges against alleged Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) leader Roopesh, reports Mathrubhumi on August 23. It is learnt that the standing counsel for Kerala Government will intimate the decision to the Supreme Court bench chaired by justice MR Shah, when the court takes up the matter. Earlier, the Government had approached the apex court to restore UAPA charges against Roopesh in the cases registered in Valayam and Kuttiady Police Stations. The court had sent notice to Roopesh on this. The court is slated to take up the matter on September 19.
