Delhi Court Grants Ishrat Jahan Bail in UAPA Case, 'No More Pending Cases,' Says Lawyer https://thewire.in/law/delhi-court-grants-ishrat-jahan-bail-in-uapa-case-no-more-pending-cases-says-lawyer 14/MAR/2022
Jahan's lawyer Pradeep Teotia has said that this bail order clears the way for her release from judicial custody.
Teotia told the court that Jahan is a lawyer and a young person in politics. “I was victorious from a ward where Muslims are less in number…She was a popular lady. They have no single iota of evidence regarding her involvement in the conspiracy.”
The prosecution sought to establish that the Delhi riots were the result of a “premeditated conspiracy” and that “whoever does whatever singular act as a part of criminal conspiracy will be responsible for others’ act.”
It argued that the Khureji Khas anti-CAA protest site was engineered by the Jamia Coordination Committee, with whom Jahan was in touch. It also sought to establish that Jahan was in touch with Sharjeel Imam through a WhatsApp group.
Jahan is the sixth person accused in this UAPA case who has been granted bail. Earlier, courts gave bail to Natasha Narwal, Devangana Kalita, Jamia Asif Iqbal Tanha, Safoora Zargar and Faizan Khan.
The Delhi Police Special Cell had filed an over 17,000-page-chargesheet in the case in September 2020, alleging that Mr. Khalid and several other student activists pre-planned and conspired the north-east Delhi riots which killed over 50 persons and left more than 700 injured. His bail application has been pending before ASJ Rawat for nearly eight months now.
