NEW DELHI: 24th March, The Delhi High Court directs Delhi Police to submit a note on the role of accused Tasleem Ahmed in the larger conspiracy behind the Delhi riots. Previously, Delhi High Court has decided to list the bail plea of Tasleem Ahmed before the roster bench for hearing. Earlier, a special bench was hearing his plea along with other accused in the 2020 Delhi riots conspiracy case.
The Supreme Court annulled a Rs.1 lakh fine imposed on advocate Mehmood Pracha by the Allahabad High Court, which criticized him for “forum shopping” and attire while representing himself. Pracha’s plea was dismissed by the High Court, deemed to waste the court’s time. The Supreme Court found no basis for the fine.
The Delhi High Court on Thursday (5th Dec) granted medical bail to Kuldeep Singh Sengar, a convicted BJP MLA in the Unnao rape case, for treatment of retinal detachment. He will undergo a 3-4 day assessment at AIIMS Delhi, monitored by local authorities. The survivor’s advocate opposed the bail, citing safety concerns and adequate prison care.
