[Bhima Koregaon] Youngest accused Jyoti Jagtap moves Special Court for discharge

Jagtap was a member of the KKM, a banned organization under the Unlawful Activities Prevention Act (UAPA). It was alleged that the cultural group which took up social causes through their music and poetry had been formed after the Gujarat riots of 2002.

Jagtap was arrested on September 8, 2020 and a chargesheet was filed in October 9, 2020.

It was alleged by the National Investigation Agency (NIA) that she met with wanted-accused Milind Teltumbde in Korchi, and during their stay underwent training related to use of weapons, explosives and physical activities.

It was the NIA’s case that Jagtap had attended meetings with the Elgar Parishad’s organisers who were allegedly trying to gather a huge public mob of Dalits and other organisations against the government to create hatred against it.
