A court in Karkardooma grants Sharjeel Imam seven days of interim bail in the Delhi riots-related UAPA case. An Additional Sessions Judge allows his request to attend his cousin’s wedding, granting interim relief from October 4 to October 10.
The court also imposes conditions. These include furnishing a bail bond of Rs 50,000 and restrictions on contact and conduct during the interim period. He is directed not to contact witnesses, not to use social media, and not to meet anyone other than family members.
Imam is an accused in the UAPA case that concerns allegations of a larger conspiracy behind the 2020 Delhi riots. His regular bail application is pending before the Delhi High Court, and the interim bail is presented as temporary relief tied to the family events.
