Discussion on Umar Khalid's Legal Case

So whenever you hear Umar's name, unsettled feeling that you feel, just,

you know,

calm down for a bit.

Calm down for a bit? You know what? Try telling that to the family of

fifty-three people killed in Delhi riots.

Do you know what charges have been made against Umar Khalid?

Do you know under what sections he's in jail?

You ask if we know the charges. Hmm, let's talk the facts.

He is booked under anti-terror law, UAPA,

murder, criminal conspiracy for twenty twenty

Delhi riots that killed

fifty-three people. Every single court up to Supreme Court

reviewed that data,

saw a clear prima facie conspiracy, and slammed the door on his

bail.

Do you know Umar, Umar's trial has not begun?

It has been six years, and he has not had...

his trial has not begun.

You cry about six years and no trial.

Madam, a seventeen-thousand-page charge sheet,

nearly nine hundred

witnesses, and dozens of accused.

Delay does not mean that he's innocent, right?

And also, in fact, in January two thousand and twenty-six,

the Supreme Court

itself looked at this mountain of evidence and confirmed a prima

facie case under UAPA and kept him inside.

He isn't in jail because of delay. He is in jail because the evidence

against him is overwhelming.

It is a question of whether you want to grow up in a country where a rule of law

decides whether a person is convicted or guilty or not, or whether it

is going to

be these Goading media anchors and channels which

are fed money by the current

government and its friends who will decide who is guilty or not.

Arey didi, the TV anchors do not sign the judicial

demand order or the

bail rejection. The High Court and the Supreme Court judges do.

And by pretending that the, uh, the case only exists on TV

screens, you are insulting the intelligence of the

judiciary and

the public. And please stop crying media trial the

moment the court does not give

you the verdict you want. The rule of law is working absolutely

fine.

It's doing its job, and you just can't digest who it got.

With that, I conclude.
