Delhi Riots Case: Mohd Saleem Khan Seeks Bail to Fund Daughter's Education

Accused in the 2020 Delhi riots case, Mohd Saleem Khan, appeals to Delhi High Court for a two-week bail to pay his daughter's exam fee. The trial court initially dismissed his plea, with the appeal now set to be heard by a special bench reviewing his main bail request.

In a recent development in the 2020 Delhi riots case, Mohd Saleem Khan has petitioned Delhi High Court seeking interim bail to accumulate funds for his daughter's examination fees. His plea was previously dismissed by the trial court.

A division bench led by Justice Chadra Dhari Singh has assigned the matter to a special bench already handling his regular bail plea, emphasizing judicial consistency in addressing the case.

Scheduled for review by Justices Navin Chawla and Shalinder Kaur, the interim bail request arose from the need to prevent educational disruption for Khan's daughter due to unpaid fees. Khan's larger appeal against a March 2022 decision is still pending.
