The Delhi High Court on Tuesday reserved its verdict on bail pleas of former JNU students, Natasha Narwal and Devangana Kalita, arrested in connection with the communal riots in north-east Delhi last year. A Bench of Justice Siddharth Mridul and Justice Anup Jairam Bhambhani reserved the judgment after the counsel for Ms. Narwal and Ms. Kalita concluded their arguments. The police had opposed the plea stating that Ms. Narwal and Ms. Kalita were well aware of the acts being carried out during the riots and that it would lead to consequences which could be disastrous. The police said the accused agreed to be part of WhatsApp groups and presumption would be that they were aware of acts of every conspirator and would be equally liable.More Related News
