Umar Khalid's Bail Saga Ends with Withdrawal After Numerous Adjournments

  • Umar Khalid, activist accused in 2020 Delhi riots, withdrew his bail application from Supreme Court after facing 14 adjournments within a year.
  • He has been incarcerated for almost three years without a substantive hearing despite co-accused receiving bail.
  • Reasons for withdrawal not officially stated, but lengthy delays and procedural hurdles likely played a role.

Key Points:

  • Khalid filed bail application in April 2023 due to ongoing detention under UAPA charges.
  • Numerous adjournments occurred due to various reasons, including:
    • Court congestion, judge recusals, and overlapping petitions.
    • Delayed response from prosecution with counter-affidavits.
    • Lack of sufficient time for hearing arguments despite promises.
  • Despite co-accused receiving bail, Khalid remained imprisoned awaiting a hearing.
  • Withdrawal likely due to frustration with long delays and lack of progress.

Additional Information:

  • Charges against Khalid include inflammatory speeches, conspiracy, and vandalism.
  • He denies all charges and maintains his right to protest.
  • Concerns raised about potential misuse of UAPA and suppression of dissent.

Potential Implications:

  • Highlights challenges faced by individuals accused under UAPA in securing bail.
  • Raises questions about judicial delays and access to justice.
  • Draws attention to ongoing struggle for civil liberties and right to protest in India.

Further Action:

  • Monitor developments in Khalid's legal case and broader issues of UAPA application.
  • Advocate for fair and speedy trials, upholding due process and respecting fundamental rights.
