He had sought interim bail to attend his sister's wedding.
The wedding is scheduled on December 27.
The former JNU student approached the court in Karkardooma for the bail, pointing out that his sister's wedding is scheduled for December 27. He said his presence is essential for family ceremonies and preparations.
Khalid was ordered not to use social media or contact any witness. The court also directed him to meet only his family members, relatives and friends. He has to remain at him home or places where the wedding ceremonies take place.
In December 2024, Khalid received a seven-day interim bail to attend a family wedding.
Khalid was arrested under the UAPA in connection with alleged conspiracy behind the February 2020 communal violence.
The trial court and the Delhi High Court have previously rejected his regular bail petitions. A plea is now pending before the Supreme Court.
