Delhi High Court granted statutory bail to student activist Sharjeel Imam in a 2020 sedition case related to inflammatory speeches at Aligarh Muslim University and Jamia area against the Citizenship Amendment Act. The court allowed Imam's bail plea, overturning the trial court's decision that had denied him statutory bail. Despite the bail, Imam will remain in jail due to his involvement in the larger conspiracy case concerning the 2020 Delhi riots, which also involves UAPA charges.
