Opposing the bail plea of Umar Khalid, Sharjeel Imam, Gulfisha Fatima, Meena Haider and other accused in the Delhi riots, Delhi Police told the Supreme Court that when intellectuals become terrorists, they are more dangerous. Delhi Police cited Red Fort car blast and white collar terror module here. During the hearing, some video clips of Sharjeel Imam’s speech were also shown, in which he was saying things like cutting off the north-eastern state of Assam from India, stopping the milk and water of Delhi and protesting fiercely.
During the hearing on the bail petitions of the accused in the Supreme Court on Thursday (November 20, 2025), Delhi Police said that nowadays a trend has been seen that intellectuals first study with government money and become doctors-engineers and then get involved in anti-national activities.
Additional Solicitor General SV Raju appeared before the bench of Justice Arvind Kumar and Justice NV Anjaria to present the side of Delhi Police. He said that when intellectuals become terrorists, they become more dangerous than those working at the grassroots level. ASG Raju was referring to the white collar terror module running from Haryana’s Al Falah University, which was recently busted by the investigating agencies. The agencies had recovered 2,900 kg of explosive material for making IED from a doctor. The very next day after this incident, this doctor’s colleague Dr. Umar Nabi exploded a car near the Red Fort, in which 14 people lost their lives. Many doctors have been arrested after this incident.
During the hearing, Delhi Police also played some video clips of Sharjeel Imam’s speech in the court, in which he is seen saying that there should be traffic jams in cities across India. In these speeches, Sharjeel Imam is saying things like cutting off Assam from India by stopping the chicken neck, stopping the milk and water of Delhi and protesting fiercely. In the video he is saying that the government has to be deactivated and the courts cannot be trusted. Delhi Police alleged that Sharjeel was trying to instigate Muslims with his speeches.
Delhi Police said that the CAA protests were just a show and an attempt to cover up the truth, the real objective was to change the government and strangulate the economy. ASG Raju said that the CAA protests were deliberately staged during US President Donald Trump’s visit to India to attract international media attention and tarnish India’s image by spreading lies that Muslims are being targeted in the country. Sharjeel Imam’s lawyer Advocate Siddharth Dave opposed this and said that an attempt is being made to influence the court by showing short excerpts of long speeches.
