New Delhi, Dec 10: The Supreme Court on Wednesday reserved its judgment on a series of petitions filed by student activists Umar Khalid and Sharjeel Imam, along with Gulfisha Fatima, Meeran Haider, Shifa-ur-Rehman, Shadab Ahmed, and Mohd. Saleem Khan. The group is challenging the Delhi High Court’s refusal to grant them bail in the alleged “larger conspiracy” case connected to the 2020 Delhi riots.

All the accused have been charged under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA) and have remained in custody for over five years.

A bench of Justices Aravind Kumar and N.V. Anjaria, after hearing detailed arguments from the defence and the prosecution, reserved its verdict and allowed both sides to submit any additional documents by December 18.
