Delhi High Court asks Er Rashid to file affidavit declaring no pending cases

Srinagar, Oct 06: The Delhi High Court on Monday directed Member of Parliament (MP) from Baramulla Lok Sabha constituency, Engineer Abdul Rashid Sheikh to file an affidavit, declaring that no other criminal cases are pending against him while hearing his regular bail plea.


A party spokesperson told the news agency—Kashmir News Observer (KNO) that they remain optimistic about a fair outcome.

“We are hopeful that justice will prevail. We have full faith in the constitution and the judiciary. Er. Rashid is innocent and was subjected to political victimization in 2019,” the spokesperson said.

It is pertinent to mention that the regular bail plea was moved before the Delhi High Court after the National Investigation Agency (NIA) court rejected Er. Rashid’s bail application earlier.
