  "account": "A Delhi court has overturned the interim bail granted to Sharjeel Imam, a suspect in the 2020 North-East Delhi riots conspiracy case, on Saturday. The decision was made following a petition by the prosecution alleging that Imam violated the court's conditions that barred him from coming into contact with media personnel. The Additional Sessions Judge Sameer Bajpai ruled against Imam based on videos showing him in the same room as a journalist interviewing his brother. The prosecution contended that Imam's presence in the same room during the interview constituted a breach of the bail condition. The court dismissed the defence's argument that the video was composed of separate clips and that Imam was not actually present during the interview. Consequently, Imam must surrender to jail by Saturday evening.",
