2020 riots: Delhi court acquits father-son duo over lack of evidence

New Indian Express  

NEW DELHI: A Delhi court has acquitted Mithhan Singh and his son, Jony Kumar, who were accused of burning the Fatima Mosque and nearby houses in Khajoori Khas during the north-east Delhi riots in 2020. The court ruled in favor of the duo, giving them the benefit of the doubt due to insufficient evidence linking them to the crime. Rioters allegedly set fire to the mosque and several homes, including Munazir’s, causing widespread destruction. However, the Delhi court, presided over by Additional Sessions Judge Pulastya Pramachala, found the evidence presented against the accused to be unreliable.
