A Delhi court has ordered the lodging of an FIR against Hurriyat leader Syed Ali Shah Geelani, writer Arundhati Roy and five others for allegedly making anti-India speeches in New Delhi last month. Metropolitan Magistrate Navita Kumari Bagha also directed the Delhi Police to file a report at the next hearing on the 6th of January. The court on Sunday rejected the status report submitted by the Delhi Police, which said no offence of sedition and other charges were made out against Geelani and others. The court observed that there is prime facie evidence against the accused and asked the police to further investigate the allegations and file a compliance report. The court was hearing a complaint filed by Sushil Pandit seeking registration of an FIR against Roy and Geelani.
