Delhi High Court to hear Sharjeel Imam's bail plea on 26 May

Firstpost  

Imam was arrested in 2020 by the Delhi Police from Bihar’s Jahanabad. A charge sheet was filed against him for giving speeches inciting hatred, contempt, and disaffection towards the Central government during the anti-CAA agitation New Delhi: The Delhi High Court is scheduled to hear the bail plea of Jawaharlal Nehru University student leader Sharjeel Imam, on May 26, seeking interim bail for alleged inflammatory speeches given by him at Aligarh Muslim University and in the Jamia area during the anti-CAA agitation in 2019 and 2020. Days after the Supreme Court of India put the trial on sedition cases on hold, Sharjeel Imam approached the Delhi High Court stating that “since the apex court has put sedition in abeyance, his case has improved for grant of bail'. The plea stated, “in view of the Supreme Court’s directions, the hindrance raised by the Special Court in the impugned order stands obviated, and observations surrounding the offence under IPC section 124-A cannot be taken into consideration in the proceedings against the Appellant pending the final outcome of the Constitutional challenges to the section.” Dehors the issue of Section 124-A IPC, the case against the appellant stands significantly diluted and improves his case for securing bail. The Delhi Police in the charge sheet against Sharjeel had mentioned, “he is accused of delivering seditious speeches and inciting a particular section of the community to indulge in unlawful activities, detrimental to sovereignty and integrity of the nation.” Read all the Latest News, Trending News, Cricket News, Bollywood News, India News and Entertainment News here.
