Fund embezzlement case: SC extends stay on Teesta Setalvad's arrest
The apex court also directed the social activist and her NGOs to give the list of documents and means of donors as sought by the Gujarat police, reports said.
The FIR was lodged against Setalvad in 2014 for allegedly misusing Rs. 1.5 crores of donations.
The court gave its directions while hearing an anticipatory bail plea of Teesta Setalvad and her husband.
Last week, the Gujarat High Court had rejected Setalvad's anticipatory bail plea in connection with the Gulbarg society embezzlement case.
