The Delhi high court has denied AISA president Neha Bora’s request to challenge a peace bond notice
NEW DELHI: There was “sufficient material” before the special executive magistrate to proceed against AISA president Neha Bora over apprehensions of breach of peace and disturbance of public tranquillity, Delhi high court said Friday. Noting that Bora has been named in six FIRs by Delhi Police, the court said “even one incident is sufficient” to initiate proceedings under Chapter IX of BNSS (provisions related to security for keeping the peace and for good behaviour) if the “circumstances so suggest that there is an apprehension that such a person will indulge in further incidents of the same nature which can breach peace and disturb public tranquillity”. Challenging the police notice, Bora’s lawyer had argu-ed that there was no application of mind or independent opinion at the time of issuance of the notice.
It dismissed her plea challenging a notice asking her to execute a peace bond, a day before she has to appear before the official.
