Sidhu was arrested by Delhi police on April 17 in relation to the violence during the farmers'' tractor march against the central government's new farm laws, moments after being released from jail in another case related to the incident, in which he got bail on April 16.
“I am of the considered opinion that applicant's further incarceration in the present case would bear no fruit and therefore would be unjustified, nor would the restoration of applicant''s liberty be detrimental to the investigation being conducted by the police authorities,” the judge said on Monday.
Sidhu was arrested in the first case on February 9 in connection with the Red Fort farmers'' protest violence on the Republic Day this year.
