Court Deliberates FIR Against Kapil Mishra in Delhi Riots Case

A Delhi court is set to deliver a verdict on April 1 regarding the plea for an FIR against BJP leader Kapil Mishra for his alleged involvement in the February 2020 riots. Arguments have been presented by all parties, and the court will consider the evidence and claims against Mishra.

A Delhi court has reserved its ruling on a plea that seeks an FIR against BJP leader and minister Kapil Mishra for his alleged role in the February 2020 riots. The decision will be announced on April 1, following comprehensive arguments from the prosecution, the complainant, and Mishra's legal representatives.

The police have argued in court that a scheme was devised to falsely attribute blame to Mishra. Special public prosecutor Amit Prasad emphasized that Mishra's role was thoroughly examined during the broader investigation into the riots' conspiracy.

The DPSG group chats revealed that the 'chakka jams' were premeditated as early as February 15, 2020. Mohammad Ilyas, among others, seeks action against Mishra and other officials, citing their alleged misconduct.
