The Delhi High Court on Wednesday dismissed the bail pleas of Umar Khalid and Sharjeel Imam in the 2020 Delhi riots case, citing the Supreme Court's January 2026 order in Gulfisha Fatima. The bench said it was bound by judicial discipline and could not override the apex court's conditions. This was Khalid's third and Imam's second rejection by the High Court.
