On the point of the chargesheet using the words “diabolical, insidious, rabid” to denote the February 2020, violence, Pais argued there was nothing diabolical about Khalid’s speech in Amravati, Maharashtra.
The prosecution has relied upon the speech to demonstrate the conspiracy charge against Khalid.
“I’m talking about Gandhi, Constitution….Chargesheet is not about facts…A story which prosecution wants to peddle.”
