Delhi’s Karkardooma court on July 8 framed charges against six men for allegedly setting one Shahbaz on fire, leading to his death during the riots in north-east Delhi in 2020. The court maintained that the act was pre-planned to take revenge against Muslims.
The framing of charges was carried out by Additional Sessions Judge Pulastya Pramachala, who framed charges against Aman, Vikram, Rahul Sharma, Ravi Sharma, Dinesh Sharma and Ranjeet Rana, for the offences of murder, rioting, attacking a particular community, dacoity, and criminal conspiracy.
The court observed that some of the witnesses had seen the act, which resulted in the commission of offences in a pre-planned manner and in an active conspiracy with each other.
