Opposing the bail application of former JNU student leader Umar Khalid in the Delhi riots “larger conspiracy” case, the prosecution on Wednesday told a city court that the accused persons had “pinned the blame” of the riots on BJP leader Kapil Mishra and the Bhim Army in order to deflect their own involvement in the case.
Special Public Prosecutor Amit Prasad made the argument before Additional Sessions Judge Amitabh Rawat, who had clubbed the bail pleas of several other accused, including Mr. Khalid, in the case.
