Delhi Riots-Police Version That 'Muslim Rioter Rubbing Shoulders With Hindu Rioters To Kill Muslim Boy' Doesn't Appeal To Senses: Delhi Court Grants Bail

Live Law  

"It does not appeal to senses that applicant being a Muslim, would rub shoulder to shoulder in such a surcharged atmosphere with the members of "unlawful assembly", which mainly consisted of the persons of Hindu community and would beat a Muslim boy to death", remarked the Karkardooma Court while granting bail to a man in two separate cases related to the North-East Delhi riots. The allegations against the applicant are that he was part/member of the "unlawful assembly", the common object whereof was to cause maximum damage to the property, life and limb of the members of other community. Arguments put forth It was argued by the Counsel for the Bail applicant that a Muslim boy had lost his life in the matter and all the persons implicated in the matter are Hindus and so, it was quite appalling that a Muslim boy shall become part of the "riotous mob" which mainly consisted of persons belonging to Hindu community. Court's Observation The Court, in its order said, "It is very obfuscatory that a Muslim boy would become part of an "unlawful assembly" which mostly consisted of members of Hindu community, the common object whereof was to cause maximum damage to the property, life and limb of the other community."
