Delhi High Court Grants Bail to UAPA Accused After Eight Years in Custody
The Delhi High Court granted bail to Mohammad Saqib, who had been in custody for nearly eight years after his 2018 arrest under the Unlawful Activities Prevention Act and other charges related to alleged links with terrorist groups. The court noted that only 40 of 120 prosecution witnesses had been examined, and the trial was significantly delayed. While acknowledging the seriousness of the allegations, the bench found the evidence insufficient to justify continued detention and imposed travel restrictions as bail conditions.
