Delhi riots accused Umar Khalid gets interim bail from Delhi court to attend sister’s wedding

A Delhi court on Thursday granted interim bail to former JNU scholar and Delhi riots mastermind Umar Khalid to attend his sister’s wedding. Additional Sessions Judge (ASJ) Sameer Bajpai allowed Khalid to remain out on bail from December 16 to December 29. “Considering the fact that the marriage is of the applicant’s real sister, the application is allowed,” the court said and granted interim bail on a personal bond of ₹20,000 with two sureties of the same amount. As part of the conditions, Khalid was told not to use social media and to only meet family members, relatives and friends during this period.
