Delhi HC issues notice on Petitions by Sharjeel Imam against movie based on Delhi riots
Op IndiaThe Delhi High Court on Thursday issued notice on two petitions seeking direction to postpone the release of “2020 Delhi,” a film based on the 2020 North-East Delhi riots, scheduled to premiere on February 2, 2025. The first petition which is moved by Sharjeel Imam, accused in the larger conspiracy case claims that the film’s trailers depict Imam and other accused individuals as terrorists, despite the fact that formal charges have yet to be filed. The plea contends that allowing the film’s release would not only taint the ongoing legal proceedings but also irreparably damage the reputations and social standing of the accused and their families. Another plea, filed by several accused individuals and victims of the Delhi riots, seeks to quash the film certificate issued by the Central Board of Film Certification and also calls for the postponement of the movie’s release.
