Tahir Hussain can file nomination from jail: Delhi HC

New Indian Express  

NEW DELHI: Former AAP councillor Tahir Hussain, accused in several cases arising out of the February 2020 riots, can file his nomination papers from jail itself, the Delhi High Court was told on Monday. The police, represented by Additional Solicitor General Chetan Sharma, highlighted previous instances where inmates filed nominations while incarcerated, referencing Amritpal Singh as a recent example. Hussain’s counsel argued that his responsibilities extended beyond filing papers, requiring him to campaign and disclose his assets, citing interim bail granted to Rashid Engineer for election purposes last year. Hussain, in custody since March 2020, sought interim bail from January 14 to February 9 to contest the Mustafabad Assembly seat on an AIMIM ticket.
