Delhi Court restores two video meetings a week for Umar Khalid to speak with family

Khalid has been in jail for the past six years in relation to the larger conspiracy case linked to the 2020 North-East Delhi riots. It was submitted on behalf of Khalid that he was provided with the facility for the past six years. However, all of a sudden since May 2026 his two e-mulakats were curtailed to one e-mulakat. Thus, he moved the Court seeking restoration of the second weekly e-mulakat. Allowing the request, the Court directed that Khalid shall be allowed two e-mulakats every week to speak with his family members.
