NEW DELHI: The Delhi Police has opposed the bail plea of Umar Khalid, Sharjeel Imam and others in the UAPA case linked to "larger conspiracy" behind the 2020 north-east Delhi riots. In an affidavit to the Supreme Court on Thursday, it said that the "materials and chats" on record referring to Donald Trump indicated that the "conspiracy was pre-planned and sought to be replicated and executed pan India. " The counsel for Umar Khalid, on Tuesday argued before a Delhi court that no criminality could be attributed to Khalid in the 2020 Delhi riots conspiracy case. He contended that there was no evidence of any criminal act by Khalid, emphasizing that mere membership in a WhatsApp group did not constitute a crime, especially since Khalid had not sent any messages in the group.
