NIA terror conspiracy legal proceedings in India

Overview

Legal proceedings continue regarding various terror conspiracy cases investigated by the National Investigation Agency (NIA) in India.

In one instance, a special NIA court in Jammu rejected the bail application of Insha Jan, an accused in the 2019 Pulwama terror attack conspiracy. The court cited a statutory bar under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA), noting that sufficient material exists to presume the allegations against Jan are “prima facie true.” The prosecution alleges Jan provided logistical support to Jaish-e-Mohammed terrorists.

Separately, the Delhi High Court granted bail to Sobiya Aziz and Kamran Ashraf Reshi, who were accused in a 2021 NIA terror conspiracy case involving Pakistan-based handlers. The court granted bail after noting the accused had been in custody for nearly five years with no immediate prospect of the trial concluding.
