Sharjeel Imam, Umar Khalid move SC seeking bail in UAPA case over 2020 Delhi riots

Activists Sharjeel Imam and Umar Khalid have challenged the Delhi High Court's refusal to grant them bail. They argue that the prosecution has not examined key protected witnesses in their case. Both activists were arrested in 2020 regarding the alleged conspiracy behind the February riots in northeast Delhi. The Supreme Court previously set conditions under which they could seek bail related to the charges.
