JNU Row: Umar Khalid Admits Supporting Afzal Guru

Two JNU students Umar Khalid and Anirban Bhattacharya, who are facing sedition charges, surrendered before the police late on Tuesday night, after day-long parleys and Delhi High Court's stern message that those accused of sedition cannot dictate terms of surrender.
Meanwhile, Umar Khalid has accepted that he spoke in support of Parliament attack convict Afzal Guru.
Umar Khalid and Anirban Bhattacharya are likely to be produced before a magistrate today morning.
According to sources, the questioning of Khalid and Bhattacharya went on for 5 hours.
The two students reached Vasant Kunj police station in a private security van of G4S, escorted by JNU security. They were then taken to South Campus police station. Later, cops took them for medical examination to AIIMS.
Earlier, the students had sought a secret surrender, a move opposed by the Delhi Police.
JNU students also made a human chain to stop the media from following the two students.
Khalid and Bhattacharya along with JNUSU President Kanhaiya Kumar, had allegedly shouted anti-national slogans at an event organised in the university campus to mark the death anniversary of Parliament attack convict Afzal Guru on Feb 9.
Besides Kanhaiya Kumar, Umar Khalid and Anirban Bhattacharya, the other students are Rama Naga, Ashutosh Kumar and Anant Prakash.
Meanwhile, Kanhaiya Kumar's bail plea will also be heard by the Delhi High Court today.
