Delhi court ordered judicial custody of 17 India Gate protesters after police revealed they gave wrong addresses and attacked officers during an anti-pollution protest. The court said the accused made a “mockery of law” by hiding their identity and obstructing police duty.
Allahabad High Court granted bail to Zafar Ali, citing lack of direct proof linking him to the Sambhal mosque violence. The court said custody can’t be used as punishment without prima facie evidence.
