On the last date of the hearing, the Bench headed by the Chief Justice of Delhi High Court had transferred a batch of petitions to another bench, relating to violence at Jamia Millia Islamia (JMI) University on December 15 2019.

Senior Advocate Colin Gonsalves appeared for the petitioner side & Advocate Rajat Nair appeared for Centre Government (Delhi Police) in the matter.
Recently the Supreme Court had requested the Delhi High Court to give an early hearing to the plea after the petitioner's lawyer submitted to Supreme Court that the matter is pending before the Delhi High Court for years.
The HC was hearing a batch of petitions including one filed by lawyer Nabila Hasan through advocates Sneha Mukherjee & Siddharth Seem seeking action against cops over Jamia violence.
In the batch of petitions, some petitioners had blamed the forces for using extreme, ruthless & excessive physical force & violence against unarmed & peaceful students.
The petitions also raised questions over the use of "extreme" measures such as tear gas shells, chilli-based explosives & rubber bullets against the protesters.
Several protesters & policemen sustained injuries during a protest against the new citizenship law near the Jamia Millia Islamia University campus on Dec 15, 2019. Some public transport was set on fire & other public properties were also damaged in the protest.
The petitioner has approached the Delhi HC against Delhi Police officials for allegedly attacking the students of Jamia Millia Islamia (JMI) University on Dec 15 2019.
