(1) In early 2026, the Supreme Court heard a high-profile habeas corpus petition challenging the six-month preventive detention of a prominent personality under the National Security Act (NSA).

Facing intense scrutiny from the Court over his deteriorating health and the lack of supplied evidentiary videos, the Centre abruptly revoked the NSA detention order in March 2026.
Which in-the-news personality is this?

Identify the former CJI, whose thoughts are captured in this new release. His father was also a respected figure in the Ambedkarite movement, having served as the President of the Republican Party of India.
