PRAYAGRAJ, Feb. 18 -- The Allahabad high court on Tuesday fixed February 24 as the next date of hearing on the bail application of Maulana Tauqeer Raza in the Bareilly violence case. Justice Ashutosh Srivastava was hearing the bail application. Maulana Tauqeer Raza Khan was arrested in connection with the violence that erupted in Bareilly in September last year after the cleric announced postponing a proposed demonstration in support of the "I Love Muhammad" campaign. In September last year, allegedly despite prohibitory orders under section 163 BNSS being in force, a crowd of about 500 people gathered, proceeding from Maulana Azad Inter College towards Shyamganj Chauraha. The crowd, holding boards and raising provocative slogans, paid little heed to the warning and persuasions made by the police personnel at the spot. The situation escalated when the accused people became aggressive and they became adamant to proceed. Thereafter, allegedly brickbats, stones and acid bottles were thrown at the police force and shots were also fired. As per the FIR, in the ensuing violence, two officers sustained injuries and the clothes of police personnel were torn. The allegations also add that the aggressive actions of the crowd created an atmosphere of terror in the area, forcing the police authorities to open fire in self-defence after failing to persuade the mob through rational discourse....
