Dr Kafeel Khan was charged under National Security Act for his speech against the CAA at a talk at the Aligarh Muslim University late last year.

Lucknow: Kafeel Khan, the Uttar Pradesh doctor jailed under the tough National Security Act (NSA) for a speech against the Citizenship (Amendment) Act or CAA, must be freed immediately, a court said today, calling his detention illegal. The doctor's speech did not show any effort to promote hate or violence, the Allahabad High Court said.

Dr Khan was charged under National Security Act for his speech against the CAA at a talk at the Aligarh Muslim University late last year. The Gorakhpur doctor was arrested on January 29 and is currently lodged in a jail in Aligarh.

The First Information Report, filed on December 13 last year, says Dr Khan made an attempt to vitiate the peaceful atmosphere at the university and disturb communal harmony.

"A complete reading of the speech prima facie does not disclose any effort to promote hatred or violence. It also no where threatens peace and tranquility of the city of Aligarh," the high court said today. "It appears that the District Magistrate had selective reading and selective mention for few phrases from the speech ignoring its true intent," the High Court said.
