Activist Neha Bora appeared before the Delhi High Court to contest a notice issued by Delhi Police directing her to execute a bond of ₹10,000. During the proceedings, Bora categorically denied any participation in or association with calls for public protests targeting the Chief Justice of India.
The case centres on allegations stemming from her detention on October 16, which prompted legal proceedings to challenge the police notice. Bora's legal team argued that the bond requirement was unjustified given her stated non-involvement in the matter cited by authorities.
The Delhi Police notice had been issued following her detention, with the bond requirement forming part of the conditions imposed on her. Bora's challenge to the notice represents an attempt to overturn or modify the police directive.
The high court heard arguments from both sides regarding the legality and necessity of the bond requirement. The case reflects ongoing tensions around protest activities and police powers in Delhi, particularly those involving criticism of senior judicial figures.
No date for the court's judgment was immediately announced during the hearing.
