The High Court on July 24 issued notice to Delhi police Khalid’s plea. Other pleas are pending before the High Court. Former JNU Student leader and accused in Larger Conspiracy of Delhi Riots 2020 Umar Khalid has moved Delhi High Court seeking bail in a UAPA case. He is one of the accused in the larger Conspiracy of Delhi riots case 2020.
Umar Khalid is in custody since September 2020. In this investigation is still ongoing on after filing of charge sheet and supplementary charge sheets. His bail petition was dismissed by the trial court. Now he has moved to the High Court.
On May 28, Delhi’s Karkardooma Court refused to grant regular bail to Umar Khalid. While rejecting the bail plea, the trial court had referred to the order of the Delhi High Court which said that the allegations against the accused were prima facie true and he did not deserve bail.
Special judge Sameer Bajpai in his order had said, ” Hon’ble High Court analyzed the case against the applicant and finally concluded that allegations against the applicant are prima-facie true and that the embargo created by section 43D(5) of UAPA squarely applies against the applicant and the applicant does not deserve bail.”
“It is clear that the Hon’ble High Court has minutely considered the role of the applicant and declined the relief as desired by him,” the Special judge observed in the order passed on May 28.
