Indian student activist Umar Khalid arrested over Delhi riots
Prominent rights campaigner held under anti-terrorism laws for alleged role in February’s deadly riots
A prominent student activist has been arrested for his alleged role in deadly riots in Delhi earlier this year, as police continue to round up anti-government figures in an investigation that has been condemned as politically motivated.
There was outcry among activists and politicians after police arrested Umar Khalid on Sunday night, naming him as a conspirator in the Delhi riots case and arresting him under a draconian terrorism law. He will be held in police custody for the next 10 days.
