“How can you enter the house of this man?” the Delhi High Court asked the police in the Nadeem Khan Delhi High Court hearing, observing that refusing permission for a protest is the police’s prerogative but that a person cannot be confined. The police said Khan was not detained, only stopped. Both positions are untested. […]
Activist Nadeem Khan has moved the Delhi High Court against his alleged detention on September 29 and a Delhi Police order barring assemblies at Jantar Mantar. The Court declined urgent listing on Friday and will hear him on Monday. The allegations are untested.
Delhi Police opposed Nadeem Khan’s plea, citing risks to communal harmony due to his social media actions. They argue he spreads misleading narratives that instigate unrest and threaten unity. The Delhi High Court granted him interim protection from arrest while emphasizing cooperation in the investigation, highlighting the importance of maintaining national harmony.
