Delhi Police Tell SC: 2020 Riots Plot Aimed At Regime Change, Oppose Bail

Delhi Police told the Supreme Court that the 2020 Delhi riots were part of a pre-planned “regime-change operation,” not peaceful protest. Opposing bail for Umar Khalid, Sharjeel Imam, and others, police alleged a coordinated conspiracy during Trump’s India visit and accused the accused of delaying trial proceedings. They said UAPA applies.
