High Court: What order did the court give?
The High Court said in its order that the accused will have to go to the police station twice a month till the completion of the trial and will have to salute the Indian national flag 21 times while saying ‘Bharat Mata ki Jai’ every time. The court further directed that accused Faizal alias Faizan, resident of Bhopal, shall be present at Misrod police station on every first and fourth Tuesday of the month between 10 am to 12 noon. Accused Faizan was granted bail on a bond of Rs 50 thousand.
what is the whole matter
The High Court had arrested the accused Faizal alias Faizan on 17 May this year by the Misrod police station of Bhopal. After the video of him raising slogans of ‘Pakistan Zindabad’ and ‘Bharat Murdabad’ went viral, the police took action against the accused under Section 153B of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) in the police station.
Faizan’s lawyer has argued that the applicant has been falsely implicated. Nevertheless, Faizan’s counsel rightly points out that in a video the applicant is seen raising slogans. But he requested the court to grant him bail by imposing some strict conditions.
13 cases already registered against the accused
After hearing both the sides, Justice Dinesh Kumar Paliwal said, there are 13 criminal cases registered against the applicant and in the video he is seen raising the above slogans. However, considering all the facts and circumstances of the case, but without expressing anything on the merits of the case, I am of the view that the applicant may be released on bail subject to certain conditions.
