2020 Delhi Riots Case | Umar Khalid Granted 7 Days Interim Bail: Why is the JNU Student Leader in Jail?
The HinduPublished : Dec 18, 2024 16:55 IST - 2 MINS READ A Delhi court on December 18 granted seven days interim bail to former JNU student Umar Khalid, accused in the conspiracy case connected to the February 2020 riots, to attend a family event. The trial court was addressing the second regular bail application filed on behalf of Umar Khalid, who sought regular bail under Section 437 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973, read with Section 43D of the Unlawful Activities Act, 1967. The Delhi High Court is presently reviewing the regular bail applications of Umar Khalid and activist Sharjeel Imam in an Unlawful Activities Act case concerning the alleged larger conspiracy behind the communal riots in Delhi in February 2020. Earlier, while rejecting his bail plea, the trial court stated: “The High Court analysed the case against the applicant and concluded that the allegations against the applicant are prima facie true, and that the embargo created by Section 43D of UAPA squarely applies against the applicant.
