Northeast Delhi riots: SC refuses to stay criminal proceedings against Tahir Hussain

The bench said it is not inclined to interfere with the high court order and all remedies are open to the petitioner.

The Supreme Court on Monday refused to stay proceedings against former Aam Aadmi Party councillor Tahir Hussain in FIRs registered against him in connection with the 2020 northeast Delhi riots.
A bench of justices Ajay Rastogi and CT Ravi Kumar said it is not inclined to interfere with the September 16 order of the Delhi High Court as it is an interim order. Senior advocate Maneka Guruswamy, appearing for Hussain, said it is a settled law that there cannot be two FIRs for the same incident.
She said it has put Hussain in a peculiar situation that charges are framed against him for identical offences arising out of the same incident, and the same prosecution witnesses are relied upon by the investigating agency.
Hussain has moved the top court challenging the Delhi High Court's September 16 order.

The bench said it is not inclined to interfere with the high court order and all remedies are open to the petitioner.
It noted that the high court had issued notices on the applications moved by Hussain for quashing the FIR registered against him for rioting and under sections of the Arms Act at the Khajuri Khas police station, and the proceedings emanating from the FIR.
The top court said that the high court has posted the matter for further hearing on January 25 while refusing to stay proceedings on a separate application moved by Hussain saying multiple FIRs have been lodged for the same.
Hussain has been in judicial custody since March 16, 2020.

9/11 attack comparison in Delhi riots case: Umar Khalid bail hearing

A high-profile case connected to the 2020 Delhi riots reportedly saw a parallel being drawn with the 9/11 terror attack in America in 2001. During a hearing regarding the bail plea of Umar Khalid, an accused in northeast Delhi violence case, a special public prosecutor invoked the deadly attacks by al Qaeda. After Umar Khalid reportedly claimed that he had sent only 5 messages on a WhatsApp group and was not present at the site of violence, SPP Amit Prasad said that even during the 9/11 attack, the masterminds were not on US soil. The prosecutor reportedly said that on February 17, there were indications of violence breaking out during the protest, and these messages were sent on the group in question. However, Umar Khalid remained silent in the group, he said. The prosecutor further claimed that the issues behind the protest were triple talaq and Babri masjid demolition, and not the Citizenship Amendment Act. In early 2020, violence had broken out in Delhi after groups clashed over the contentious CAA. Over 50 people had died. Recently, the first conviction in cases related to the violence had been handed out to accused Dinesh Yadav. He was sentenced to 5 years of rigorous imprisonment by a Delhi court for trespassing into the house of a woman named Manori Devi, and setting it on fire.

In a first conviction in the Delhi riots of February 2020, a court on Monday convicted a man for being part of a riotous mob that set a house on fire.
Dinesh Yadav has been found guilty for being a member of an unlawful assembly, rioting, arson, house trespassing, and robbery. He was part of the mob that set house of 73-year-old Manori on fire during the riots.
The judge will pronounce the sentence on December 22 and Yadav could face up to 10 years in jail.
As per the prosecution, Yadav was an "active member of the riotous mob" and took active participation in vandalizing and arson on the night of February 25.
Manori had alleged a mob of around 150-200 rioters attacked her house when her family was not present and looted all the articles and even the buffalo.
The 25-year-old Yadav was arrested on June 8, 2020. The court framed charges against him on August 3, 2021, to which he pleaded not guilty and claimed trial.
Communal clashes had broken out in northeast Delhi in February 2020, after violence between the Citizenship (Amendment) Act supporters and its protesters spiraled out of control leaving at least 53 people dead and over 700 injured.
