New Delhi: The Delhi High Court on Friday reserved its order on the bail plea filed by Pinjra Tod member Devangana Kalita in connection with a case related to the violence in northeast Delhi in February this year.
A single-judge bench of Justice Suresh Kumar Kait reserved its order after hearing arguments from all the sides. Kalita has challenged a trial court's order which had dismissed her bail plea.
Advancing arguments for Delhi Police, Additional Solicitor General SV Raju told the court that Kalita had given false and misleading statements that poor people will be thrown out of the country and instigated them for violence. However, the court asked Delhi Police to show any videos related to the submission.
Raju said that he has no specific video of Kalita instigating people during violence as she was making a statement a kilometre away and there was a gathering of thousands of people. However, stressing the submission, he said that it was heard by the concerned Station House Officer (SHO), who was present near Kalita at the time.
