New Delhi, March 11 -- Former JNU scholar Sharjeel Imam was not only an instigator but also one of the "kingpins" of the larger conspiracy to incite violence during the anti-Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) protests in Delhi in 2019, a city court has said, while ordering the framing of charges against the 37-year-old.
The court, in its March 7 order, described Imam's speeches as "venomous," aimed at pitting one religious community against another and inciting mass-scale disruption.
The court observed that Imam "systematically orchestrated inflammatory speeches" across multiple spots in Delhi. P5
