The Delhi High Court has upheld the conviction and seven-year jail term awarded to five men for the death of a 22-year-old man during the communal riots in north-east Delhi in February 2020.

Justice Madhu Jain dismissed the appeals by Aman Kashyap, Devinder Kumar, Pradeep Rai, Ashish and Arun Kumar challenging the trial court's decision, stating that as per the eyewitness' account, the appellants were at the forefront of an armed mob and exhorted others to assault the deceased, Mohsin.
