Social activist Gautam Navlakha, accused of having links to Maoists and Pakistan's spy agency ISI, on Friday withdrew from the Supreme Court his application seeking to be shifted to Delhi from Mumbai under house arrest.

Navlakha is under house arrest in Mumbai in connection with the Elgar Parishad-Maoist link case. On November 10 last year, the 70-year-old was allowed by the apex court to be placed under house arrest owing to his deteriorating health.
