Event Summary

A Delhi court rejected the interim bail plea of Jawad Ahmad Siddiqui, chairman of Al-Falah University, who is accused in a Rs 493-crore money laundering case being investigated by the India — Enforcement Directorate. Siddiqui sought bail to care for his wife, who has stage-4 cancer, but the court found that medical records showed her condition as stable and that alternative caregivers were available. Siddiqui was initially arrested by the India — Delhi Police Crime Branch for financial and administrative irregularities at Al-Falah University. The India — Enforcement Directorate alleges that Al-Falah University deceived students with false NAAC accreditation and India — University Grants Commission (India) recognition, generating illicit funds. Siddiqui is accused of siphoning funds from the Al-Falah_Charitable_Trust. The university also faces scrutiny due to the employment of Umar Un Nabi, a suspect in the November 2025 India — Red Fort blast.
