💨 Abstract

Delhi Police opposed the plea of former AAP politician Tahir Hussain, accused in a 2020 riots-related murder case, seeking his release to contest assembly elections on an AIMIM ticket. The police argued that contesting elections is not a fundamental right and Hussain, as the "main conspirator" of the riots, could complete formalities from custody.
