On 9th June 2023, liberals and Islamists in Delhi organised a program in the Press Club of India as it marks 1000 days of Islamist Umar Khalid being in jail.
On December 31, his father, Syed Qasim Rasool Ilyas, a former member of the banned Islamic Terrorist organisation SIMI, took to Twitter and informed that Khalid has returned to prison and said his family would wait for "justice to prevail".
