Court pulls up Jama Masjid’s Shahi Imam, slaps ₹25k fine
A Delhi court has criticised Jama Masjid’s Shahi Imam Syed Ahmed Bukhari for seeking withdrawal of prosecution in an assault case and imposed a penalty of ₹25,000 on him for wasting the court’s time. The court said Bukhari, who's charged with assaulting public servants and causing damage to public property in 2001, cannot take advantage of being the Shahi Imam.
