Engineer Rashid’s Interim Bail Postpones in Delhi Court Hearing to 1 July 2024

A Delhi Court has postponed the hearing of Engineer Rashid’s interim bail plea to July 1. The purpose of the bail is to allow Rashid to take his oath of office.

Previously, the Court has delayed the final decision on Rashid’s interim bail plea multiple times, with the most recent deferment occurring on June 19, 2014.

Rashid, an Independent candidate, recently won the Baramulla constituency in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections, defeating former J&K Chief Minister Omar Abdullah.

Rashid has been imprisoned since 2019 on charges under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA) for alleged terror funding. He is currently held in Tihar Jail.
