The Delhi High Court has vacated its interim order restraining the trial court from passing a final order on framing charges in the Delhi riots larger conspiracy case.
Justice Neena Bansal Krishna dismissed a petition filed by Pinjra Tod activist Devangana Kalita seeking access to CCTV footage and police WhatsApp group chats.
The judge, however, allowed Kalita's plea seeking inspection of the police malkhana, where case property, including electronic records, is stored in connection with the larger Delhi riots conspiracy case.
The verdict was pronounced a day after the Delhi Police urged the court to transfer the two petitions filed by Devangana from Justice Krishna's bench to any other judge for fresh hearing.
