AI Summit ‘shirtless’ protest: Delhi court grants bail to IYC president Uday Chib

Thirteen other individuals, all members and office bearers of the IYC, have also been arrested in the case.

The alleged incident took place around 12.30 pm last Friday, when a group of men had entered Hall 7 of the summit at Bharat Mandapam wearing jackets and sweaters. Underneath, they were wearing T-shirts with Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s picture printed on them. They allegedly removed the jackets and sweaters and started raising “anti-national” slogans at the hall.

Police alleged that the incident was not spontaneous but executed after prior planning and that their initial probe has revealed structured allocation of roles, concealment tactics and coordinated post-incident movement.

In its grounds of arrest, the Delhi Police also claimed that Chib had not disclosed the source where the T-shirts were printed, which the accused used during the protest.
