HC seeks Delhi Police stand on Sharjeel Imam's bail plea in sedition case

Hindustan Times  

A bench of Justices Suresh Kumar Kait and Manoj Jain issued a notice to the Delhi Police on Imam's appeal against a trial court order rejecting his bail application. Imam claimed before the trial court that he has been in custody for four years and the maximum sentence for the offence under UAPA section 13 is seven years if convicted. The trial court, while refusing to grant him bail on February 17, ruled that Imam's custody could be extended for a further period in "exceptional circumstances" after hearing the prosecution's case. In the order, the trial court had said Imam delivered various speeches in Delhi, Aligarh, Asansol and Chakband, which incited people and ultimately triggered communal riots in different parts of Delhi.
