Delhi High Court overturns bail for street vendor in Jan. 6–7, 2026 mosque demolition violence case.

The Delhi High Court has overturned bail granted to Ubedullah, a street vendor, in connection with violent clashes during a demolition operation near the Faiz-e-Elahi mosque in Turkman Gate on January 6–7, 2026. Justice Prateek Jalan criticized the lower court’s decision as unreasoned and lacking proper analysis, noting allegations of stone-pelting by a mob that injured six police officers. The High Court remanded the case for reconsideration, emphasizing the seriousness of the public order breach and the need for thorough judicial scrutiny in such cases. The matter remains under review.
