Delhi HC to hear plea for cancellation of Kanhaiya’s bail

New Delhi: A plea seeking cancellation of the six-month interim bail to JNU Students Union president Kanhaiya Kumar in a sedition case is likely to come up for hearing in the Delhi High Court on Wednesday.

The plea filed on Tuesday by lawyer R.P. Luthra said Kanhaiya had violated the conditions imposed on him by the Delhi High Court while granting him interim bail on March 2.

Kanhaiya was booked and arrested on charge of involvement in anti-national sloganeering on the campus on February 9.

The petitioner said that Kanhaiya had made derogatory remarks against the Indian army after his release.

While granting him bail, Justice Pratibha Rani said he will “not participate actively or passively in any activity which may be termed as anti-national”.
