HC allows custody parole to Tahir Hussain to file nomination for Delhi polls, refuses interim bail due to gravity of offence
New Delhi, The Delhi High Court on Tuesday granted custody parole to former A councillor Tahir Hussain in a riots-related murder case to enable him to file nomination papers from the Mustafabad constituency on an AIMIM ticket. HC allows custody parole to Tahir Hussain to file nomination for Delhi polls, refuses interim bail due to gravity of offence Justice Neena Bansal Krishna refused his plea for interim bail from January 14 till February 9 to fight the polls, saying that the gravity of allegations against Hussain, that he was the main perpetrator in the violence which resulted in the death of several persons, could not be overlooked. Merely because he was a former municipal councillor would also not entitle him to interim bail, the court said as it imposed several conditions on Hussain during his custody parole including barring him from interacting with media or any person except the officials concerned in the nomination process. Maintaining that contesting elections was not a fundamental right, the police had alleged that Hussain who was the "main conspirator" and "funder" of the February 2020 riots could complete formalities and fight polls on custody parole.
