Delhi High Court seeks NIA reply on Engineer Rashid plea challenging terror funding charges

The Delhi High Court has sought a reply from the NIA (National Investigation Agency) on a plea filed by former MLA Engineer Rashid, "challenging terror funding charges." The court's action is a standard procedural step in a legal challenge to the framing of charges under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA). The court will now hear the NIA's response before deciding on the merits of the plea, which seeks to quash the charges and secure a favorable order for the politician.
