A Delhi high court bench headed by Justice Mukta Gupta disposed of Imam's appeal for stay and requested the lower court to conclude on a "short date" the examination of the witnesses on which there is no dispute between the parties.
Several titbits related to the Arushi-Hemraj murder mystery that shook the nation find mention in a new book 'Aarushi' by Avirook Sen.
The court further observed that Imam, also a former JNU student, and Khalid were stated to be 'co-conspirators' in the case and it would thus hear both the two bail applications together.
During the proceedings, counsel for Imam said, "From the impugned speech, there is nothing which per se causes any kind of religious animosity. We cannot lose sight of the context. What Sharjeel Imam says, in relation to CAA-NRC, is that in much as it affects one community directly, what kind of support is to be elicited from the majority community."
Police escorted the couple to Nupur's parents' house in Noida's Jalvayu Vihar.
The high court imposed various bail conditions on him, including that he shall not tamper with the evidence or influence witnesses, directly or indirectly.
