Their goal was to defame India globally. The mention of US President Donald Trump in the chats indicates that the conspiracy was to create an international narrative. Fifty-three people died in the Delhi riots. The Delhi Police maintains that this violence was pre-planned.

Under UAPA, jail is the only rule.

Delhi Police said that in such cases, jail is the rule, not bail. Delhi Police says that the accused themselves are delaying the trial, they are postponing the hearing by making excuses again and again. 39 dates were fixed in the proceedings under 207 CrPC. Police claims that the accused deliberately delayed in taking the case files. Delhi High Court also accepted in its decision that the delay in the trial is happening because of the accused. Delhi Police said that the arguments of 900 witnesses are false, there are only 100-150 important witnesses, whose testimony can be completed soon.

A group was formed to incite riots.

In its affidavit, the Delhi Police named Umar Khalid, Sharjeel Imam, Meeran Haider, Shifa-ur-Rehman, Gulfisha Fatima, and Mohammad Salim Khan as part of the conspiracy. The Delhi Police stated that the motive behind these protests was to change the government, not simply to protest. The Delhi Protest Support Group was created to carry out the conspiracy and the WhatsApp group was also created for this purpose.

Umar Khalid's role is clear

In a secret meeting in Seelampur, Umar Khalid instigated women to collect knives, bottles, acid, stones, and chili powder. When local women failed to assist in the desired violence, Umar Khalid summoned Bangladeshi women from Jahangirpuri and sent them to Jafrabad. Witness statements and photographs confirm Umar Khalid's role. He, along with other conspirators, orchestrated the first phase of the Delhi riots from December 13 to 20, 2019. He instigated mosque imams to read the inflammatory content of the pamphlets in their sermons (khutba).

Delhi was targeted to spread violence across the country.

In his speech at Jamia in December 2019, he said that what happened was just a spark. He gave a plan for a chakka jam so that essential services like milk and water would be stopped in Delhi. In his speech at Asansol (January 2020), he said that the Constitution of India and the state are anti-Muslim and instigated Muslims to separate from India. He had links with radical organizations who distributed inflammatory pamphlets and gathered crowds in Muslim areas. He targeted Delhi to spread both violence and narrative across the country.
