SC to hear plea against deportation of two Sudanese

The Supreme Court today agreed to accord urgent hearing to a plea challenging deportation of two Sudan nationals to their strife-torn homeland.

"We will hear at 2 PM ," a bench comprising Chief Justice J S Khehar and Justice D Y Chandrachud said when senior advocate Colin Gonsalves sought an urgent hearing on the plea of the Sudan nationals.

He said they might be killed if deported to Sudan, facing internal strife.
