The Division Bench granted bail to three other accused in the 16 cases linked to the riots. However, Malik and former municipal councillor Zeeshan ParveZ will continue to stay in jail.
The police have arrested five more individuals in connection with the violence that occurred on February 8, accusing them of being involved in arson and firing incidents.
The court also dismissed a plea by Devangana Kalita, one of the accused in the case, seeking video recordings of the protests against the CAA-NRC that the prosecution relied upon in the case.
