Special judge Prashant Sharma granted them default bail on grounds of parity with their American co-accused Matthew Aaron Van Dyke. Default bail is provisioned in the UAPA if the probe agency doesn’t file charge sheet containing offences under the anti-terror law with 180 days of arresting the accused.

Following this, the court had directed that the other six accused could also seek default bail. Earlier this month, the agency filed a charge sheet which did not mention provisions of the UAPA, 1967, which was invoked in the initial FIR.
