Court rejects bail plea of man arrested in connection with the death of a head constable

The Delhi High Court has rejected the bail petition of a man arrested in connection with the death of a head constable during the northeast Delhi riots last year, noting that the riots were a result of a “pre-planned and pre-meditated conspiracy to disturb law and order in the city”.

Justice Subramonium Prasad while dismissing the bail plea of one Mohd. Ibrahim, who was seen on numerous CCTV footages wearing a skull cap, black Nehru jacket, and salwar-kurta, with a sword in his hand on multiple locations around Chand Bagh area.
Justice Prasad said even though Mr. Ibrahim could not be seen at the ‘scene of crime’, he clearly was part of the mob for the sole reason that he had consciously travelled 1.6 km away from his neighbourhood with a sword which could only be used to incite violence and inflict damage.
“The riots which shook the National Capital of the country in February 2020 evidently did not take place in a spur of the moment, and the conduct of the protesters who are present in the video footage which has been placed on record by the prosecution visibly portrays that it was a calculated attempt to dislocate the functioning of the government as well as to disrupt the normal life of the people in the city,” the High Court remarked.
The systematic disconnection and destruction of the CCTV cameras also confirmed the existence of a pre-planned and pre-meditated conspiracy to disturb law and order in the city, Justice Prasad said adding, “This is also evident from the fact that innumerable rioters ruthlessly descended with sticks, ‘dandas’, bats etc. upon a hopelessly outnumbered cohort of police officials”.

The case relates to an FIR filed in connection with a protest against the Citizenship (Amendment) Act, 2019 that had been taking place for 1.5 months prior to the incident at Khajuri Square to Loni Circle at Wazirabad Road, Chand Bagh by the Muslim community.
On February 24, 2020, around 1.00 p.m. the protesters had mobilised near the Chand Bagh area and 25 Futa Road, and were moving towards the Main Wazirabad Road. When the police officers attempted to convince them to not move forward, the protesters carrying sticks, baseball sticks, iron rods and stones turned violent.
Some people in the crowd started pelting stones at the police officials, and beat them as well as other passers-by. The FIR stated that ACP Gokalpuri, head constable Ratan Lal and DCP Shahdara Amit Kumar were also beaten with sticks and stones, and as a result, they fell down and suffered grievous head injuries. Later, the head constable succumbed to a bullet injury.
Mr. Ibrahim’s counsel argued that as per the injury report, which is a part and parcel of the chargesheet, the death of the head constable was due to a gunshot injury and the same was possibly fired by the gun of a police official. The counsel stated that the death had not been caused by the sword which was carried by Mr. Ibrahim.
Additional Solicitor General S.V. Raju, representing Delhi police, said the absence of an accused from a video does not translate into absence of the accused from the scene of crime. Mr. Raju stated that identification of an accused in videography was a Herculean task.
After perusing the material on record, the High Court said Mr. Ibrahim had been clearly identified on multiple CCTV footages, carrying a sword and instigating the crowd.
The clinching evidence that tilted this court towards prolonging the incarceration of Mr. Ibrahim was the fact that the weapon which was being carried by him was capable of causing grievous injuries and/or death, and was prima facie a dangerous weapon, Justice Prasad said.
Bail for another arrested
In a separate decision on the same FIR, the High Court on Monday granted bail to one Mohd. Saleem Khan who was arrested on March 11, 2020. Mr. Khan was seen turning away a CCTV camera with the aid of a wiper.
Senior advocate Salman Khurshid, representing Mr. Khan, argued that his client had been falsely implicated in the FIR and that there was nothing on record which showed that Mr. Khan was a part of a mob or present at the scene of crime (SOC).
“A perusal of the material on record has revealed to the court that the video footage wherein the petitioner [Mr. Khan] is seen does not indicate whether the petitioner was a part of the unlawful assembly at the SOC,” Justice Prasad said.
Even though Mr. Khan could be seen dislocating a CCTV camera and inciting the crowd, the High Court said whether he was part of the conspiracy or not could be ascertained only after evidence was filed.
The usage of a wiper to turn away the CCTV camera implied that Mr. Khan may have been in the know-how of the impending riots, Justice Prasad said adding the extent to which the charge could be added against him could not be deconstructed by this court at this point and was a matter of trial.

Yes the riots did not take place in a spur of the moment but were incited by Hindutvadi leaders like Anurag Thakur and Kapil Mishra. The first gentleman notoriously said before the riots in a gathering of Hindutvadis - "Desh ke ghaddaaron ko" and his admirers in the crowd shouted back "Goli maaro saalon ko". The second gentleman notoriously stood on a stage beside a senior Delhi policeman and declared to the ardent crowd that if the anti-CAA protestors are not removed by the police by the time Trump leaves then the gentleman and his followers will go to the protest sites and "remove" the protesters.

And readers of this thread should now watch this vid of the Hindutvadi woman leader Ragini Tiwari going live on FB during the Delhi "riots" and exhorting the fanatic crowd to "Kaath daalo" the Muslims and also exhorting Delhi police to mercilessly beat up the Muslims and later that year she repeated her violence threats but this time against the farmers protesting in Delhi.

The police in Delhi neither used bullets and batons against these criminals yet arrested the progressive young activist Umar Khalid for inciting the riots, basically some rubbish foisted by the Delhi police. The reality :

The matter revolved around a speech that Khalid had given on February 17, 2020, in Amravati which, in the police version of events, was allegedly “seditious”. But where did the police get their version from? From videos put out by two TV channels, Republic TV and News 18. Where did Republic TV and News 18 get their videos from? From a tweet put out by Amit Malviya, national “in-charge” of the BJP’s Information and Technology department.

The tweeted version of the speech was cleverly edited to make it sound “seditious”, in the loosely defined way to which our criminal justice system seems partial. In actuality Khalid had, far from giving a call for violence in that speech, had actually conveyed a message of unity of the people and love.

Khalid’s lawyer summed it well:

“Your material is a YouTube video which is copied from a tweet. The journalist did not even have the responsibility to go there. It’s not a journalistic ethic. This is death of journalism.”

So Delhi Police got its info from the notorious Chaatukaar Media who got it from the also notorious IT Cell.

The systematic disconnection and destruction of the CCTV cameras also confirmed the existence of a pre-planned and pre-meditated conspiracy to disturb law and order in the city, Justice Prasad said

1. I laughed above but Umar has been unjustly jailed for the last one year and Justice Prasad should be really putting his mind into this.

2. There was a photo or vid of Delhi policemen destroying roadside CCTV cameras during the riots. Who were they shielding ? Other than the Hindutvadis the policemen have been captured on camera beating up some passing Muslim youth and making them chant unnecessary slogans. What about these ?

In a separate decision on the same FIR, the High Court on Monday granted bail to one Mohd. Saleem Khan who was arrested on March 11, 2020. Mr. Khan was seen turning away a CCTV camera with the aid of a wiper.

Senior advocate Salman Khurshid, representing Mr. Khan, argued that his client had been falsely implicated in the FIR and that there was nothing on record which showed that Mr. Khan was a part of a mob or present at the scene of crime (SOC).

That's good. The police has presented Mohammed Ibrahim's case to represent a situation where the Muslims started the riots but the reality is that it was the Hindutvadis who did that and the police helped them.

Read Again...The high court is highlighting to the fact that Muslims across Delhi under the leadership of tahir hussain, umar khalid & many others organized riots in Delhi by collecting weapons ,acid, petrol bombs, killing innocent dalit Hindus while attacking the city of Delhi.

Muslims moved to the streets pelting stones ,swords ,iron rods to attack Hindus & police just to create a scene for visiting US President under the garb of Anti-CAA protests,which miserably failed as their movement died with it.

No slogans or threats from anyone are worse than killings of innocent Hindus & policeman who died serving the country & protecting the city from muslim rioters.

1. I laughed above but Umar has been unjustly jailed for the last one year and Justice Prasad should be really putting his mind into this.

2. There was a photo or vid of Delhi policemen destroying roadside CCTV cameras during the riots. Who were they shielding ? Other than the Hindutvadis the policemen have been captured on camera beating up some passing Muslim youth and making them chant unnecessary slogans. What about these ?

People like tahir hussain & Umar Khalid are responsible for each and every death during Delhi riots & should get life imprisonment or should be hanged till death.

Organizing riots and conspiring against the state are bigger crimes than murder ,they deserve the worst.

That's good. The police has presented Mohammed Ibrahim's case to represent a situation where the Muslims started the riots but the reality is that it was the Hindutvadis who did that and the police helped them.

Ask anyone in Delhi, they will tell it was muslims who started the riots, they were prepared for riots with petrol bombs ,acid, bricks etc on their roof to attack poor Innocent Dalit Hindus.

It's only because of your endless victimhood you fail to see the crimes your community members are doing against the state.

How brainwashed are you, man ? You read again. Where did the court make mention in the OP about Tahir Hussain and Umar Khalid ?

And I have told you about how wrongly and ridiculously Umar has been jailed by Delhi Police.

Muslims moved to the streets pelting stones ,swords ,iron rods to attack Hindus & police just to create a scene for visiting US President under the garb of Anti-CAA protests,which miserably failed as their movement died with it.

1. Muslims did all that ? Did you even watch that vid of the Hindutvadi woman leader Ragini Tiwari telling the fanatic Hindutvadi crowds to "Kaath daalo" the Muslims and she exhorting the police to mercilessly attack the Muslims ? Why are you silent on this ?

2. And visiting US president ? What logic is that ? So you wanted the anti-CAA and anti-NRC protesters to say "OK, I will not protest against injustice just because the American president is here but may, may, protest when he goes away" ?

People like tahir hussain & Umar Khalid are responsible for each and every death during Delhi riots & should get life imprisonment or should be hanged till death.

What about this Hindutvadi criminal / terrorist who was involved in bombing against Muslims in Malegaon years ago ?

What about the other Hindutvadi criminals / terrorists who assassinated those four progressive Hindus since 2013 - Narendra Dabholkar, Govind Pansare, MM Kalburgi and Gauri Lankesh ?

And riots ? What about the genocide in Gujarat in 2002 ? Now don't come up with the "Oh the evil Muslamics burnt the train bogie" thing because that has been debunked scientifically a long time ago. And there are other "riots" since 1947 we could discuss.

Ask anyone in Delhi, they will tell it was muslims who started the riots, they were prepared for riots with petrol bombs ,acid, bricks etc on their roof to attack poor Innocent Dalit Hindus.

1. We can ask @Naofumi. He is from Delhi and will tell you the reality opposite to what you are saying.

2. And Dalit Hindus ? Since when is a Hindutvadi like you so concerned about Dalits ? Your saffroni hero, Yogi Adityanath, made it illegal in his state for Dalits to convert to Buddhism or other religion of their choice because they feel oppressed within their Lower Caste / Achoot status within Sanatan Dharm. Did you even make one post about the tragic suicide of Dalit student Rohith Vemula who committed suicide in 2016 because he was tired of being oppressed by his Upper Caste university officials and sadly some Upper Caste government officials ? I attended a gathering in front of my city's town hall that was a protest about his suicide. How about you ? And the same year - 2016 - Rohith's mother and brother converted to Buddhism. If they had done this in Yogi Raj they would have been arrested.

 

[kingQamaR]

This is becoming a routine affair of erasing attacking Muslim suburbs in India

I don’t know why this supposedly Indian Muslim is arguing on details for

the facts are on the ground fir everyone to see horrific
You think your banana Indian courts will help u I really feel sorry for Indian Muslims they are now stuck in a nazi ghetto country of cowards who attacking them

 

[lightoftruth]

How brainwashed are you, man ? You read again. Where did the court make mention in the OP about Tahir Hussain and Umar Khalid ?

And I have told you about how wrongly and ridiculously Umar has been jailed by Delhi Police.

Do you even know who are accused in this case ? Umar is responsible for killings of all innocent Hindus & Policeman who died in the hands of muslim rioters ,since he organized the entire thing.

He should be rightly punished and be hanged for his crimes.

1. Muslims did all that ? Did you even watch that vid of the Hindutvadi woman leader Ragini Tiwari telling the fanatic Hindutvadi crowds to "Kaath daalo" the Muslims and she exhorting the police to mercilessly attack the Muslims ? Why are you silent on this ?

2. And visiting US president ? What logic is that ? So you wanted the anti-CAA and anti-NRC protesters to say "OK, I will not protest against injustice just because the American president is here but may, may, protest when he goes away" ?

Go to the court against her ,did anyone stopped you ?

No speech can be equated with muslim rioters killing of innocent Dalit Hindus.

The chargesheet significantly mentions that "it was decided in the meeting that there should be a big blast to discredit the country internationally during or before the visit of US President Donald Trump in the month of February. Plans were made to carry out the riots”.

These riots were systematically planned to kill innocents & discredit the country internationaly.

What about this Hindutvadi criminal / terrorist who was involved in bombing against Muslims in Malegaon years ago ?

What about the other Hindutvadi criminals / terrorists who assassinated those four progressive Hindus since 2013 - Narendra Dabholkar, Govind Pansare, MM Kalburgi and Gauri Lankesh ?

What about ?

Are you trying to justify Delhi riots by muslim rioters ?

1. We can ask @Naofumi. He is from Delhi and will tell you the reality opposite to what you are saying.

2. And Dalit Hindus ? Since when is a Hindutvadi like you so concerned about Dalits ? Your saffroni hero, Yogi Adityanath, made it illegal in his state for Dalits to convert to Buddhism or other religion of their choice because they feel oppressed within their Lower Caste / Achoot status within Sanatan Dharm.

If they had done this in Yogi Raj they would have been arrested.

I am from Delhi , east Delhi which is mosly a dalit-muslim locality,it's their when dalit's were attacked by their muslim neighbors with iron rods,petrol bombs,acid etc because dalits believed in secularism and thought they can live peacefully with muslims.

Hindutvadis have highest support from dalits since dalits are at the receiving end of muslim violence all across the country.

 

[jamahir]

Umar is responsible for killings of all innocent Hindus & Policeman who died in the hands of muslim rioters ,since he organized the entire thing.

So you believe this just because Delhi Police says so ? And Delhi Police got such info about from where ? From two "news" channels of the Godi Media who got it from the IT Cell. How is this valid ? But this I have already told you in post# 2 so why are you repeating it ?

You are angry with Umar because he is two things you hate : Muslim and Communist.

Go to the court against her ,did anyone stopped you ?

Court ? Why did Delhi Police not arrest her and Kapil Mishra and Anurag Thakur since they are the ones who incited the riots ? Why did Delhi Police not file chargesheets against them ? I ask this because you are later talking about Delhi Police chargesheets and all.

The chargesheet significantly mentions that "it was decided in the meeting that there should be a big blast to discredit the country internationally during or before the visit of US President Donald Trump in the month of February. Plans were made to carry out the riots”.

1. Now who filed this chargesheet ? The largely discredited and servile Delhi Police ? We all know how Delhi policemen attacked students inside JMI and allowed ABVP criminals to attack the progressive students of JNU. When is this chargesheet from ?

2. How would this "big blast" discredit the country ?

No speech can be equated with muslim rioters killing of innocent Dalit Hindus.

Such speeches by that criminal woman and her cohorts had quite a few effects, among them this famous picture :

Hindutvadis have highest support from dalits since dalits are at the receiving end of muslim violence all across the country.

LOL. So why did the mother and brother of late Rohith Vemula convert to Buddhism instead of being within the system maintained by the Hindutvadis ? Why is Dalit leader Chandrashekhar Azad not aligned with the Hindutvadis ? Why did Dalit leader Jignesh Mevani join the Congress two days ago instead of the BJP ?

It was the usual hindutva extremist mobs backed up by police and a horrendous Modi government

India is a utter communal disaster

It should never be one country with so much division and hate

So there was no "Goli maaro saalon ko", "Ye lo azaadi", "Kaath daalo, kaath daalo" etc before the "riots" started ? Did you even watch the vid I posted and that thing about Umar's case ? You are brainwashed.

“15 minute ke liye police hatao hinduo ke nipta denge”, “hum 15 crore 100 crore pe bhaari padenge”, “Hinduo ki kabr khudegi AMU ki Dharti par” were slogans promoting peace right?

And will you care to explain how did Tahir Hussain had so many packets of acid and stones and molotov cocktails (petrol bombs) in his house and he himself was at the roof of his under construction house during the riots facilitating it.

Stop being an apologist for a criminal.
