In a tragic turn of events, former Delhi University professor G N Saibaba has passed away at a state-run hospital. His death comes merely seven months after his acquittal in a controversial case alleging links with Maoist groups.

Saibaba, who was in his 50s, succumbed to health complications, including a gall bladder infection, on Saturday. Officials report that he breathed his last around 9 p.m.

In March, the Bombay High Court acquitted Saibaba after finding insufficient evidence against him, marking the end of a decade-long legal battle that saw him imprisoned for 10 years.
