Delhi HC asks for NIA reply on Sheikh Rashid bail plea
The Northlines
|16 MAY 2025
The Delhi High Court on Thursday sought NIA’s response on the bail plea of Baramulla MP Sheikh Rashid in a terror funding case.
-
A bench of Justices Subramonium Prasad and Harish Vaidyanathan Shankar issued notice on the parliamentarian’s plea against a trial court order refusing him bail on March 21.
The bench also asked the National Investigation Agency (NIA) to respond to Rashid’s separate plea challenging the framing of charges in the case.
Rashid, who is facing trial for allegedly funding separatists and terror groups in Jammu and Kashmir, sought bail citing a delay in trial and the inability to perform his duty as a Lok Sabha MP.
