Supreme Court Denies Bail Condition Relaxation for Delhi Riots Accused to Attend Ghaziabad Law Classes
The Supreme Court on October 26, 2026, declined to relax bail conditions for Shadab Ahmad, an accused in the 2020 Delhi riots conspiracy case, who sought permission to attend law classes in Ghaziabad. The bench questioned why he chose a college outside Delhi and refused to modify the condition barring him from leaving the capital without trial court approval. Ahmad withdrew his plea with liberty to approach the trial court. The court had granted him bail earlier with strict conditions, warning against misuse of liberty.
