Kanhaiya Kumar, who was also arrested on charges of sedition over the same event held on February 9, was granted bail earlier this month.

Umar Khalid is accused of being one of the main organisers of the event to mark the anniversary of the hanging of Parliament attack convict Afzal Guru, where anti-India slogans were raised.
