The Rouse Avenue Court has set aside a magistrate's order and directed Delhi Police to investigate Law Minister Kapil Mishra's alleged role in the 2020 North East Delhi riots conspiracy case, despite police claims of having previously found no evidence against him. The decision comes after revision petitions filed by both Mishra and Delhi Police challenging an earlier court directive for further investigation based on a complaint by Mohd. Ilyas.
