Sharjeel Imam, accused in the February 2020 Delhi riots, claims he was “completely disconnected” from co-accused Umar Khalid and the events of violence. His counsel seeks compassionate bail after five years in custody, arguing no evidence links Imam to inciting unrest, while emphasizing his significant personal challenges during imprisonment.
The Supreme Court issued a notice in response to a plea from the High Court Advocates Bar Association, Jabalpur, and the M.P. High Court Bar Association. The petition challenges a Madhya Pradesh High Court order that dismissed their writ petition against the disconnection of their electricity supply and seeks a stay on the recovery of the bill.
