Delhi Court Extends Judicial Custody of CGP Leaders Sourav Das and Ashutosh Ranka

A Delhi court has extended the judicial custody of CGP leaders Sourav Das and Ashutosh Ranka by two days until October 21 in connection with a trespassing case transferred to the crime branch. The court observed that both leaders deliberately breached their peace bonds signed on October 11, showed disregard for the law, and that their assurances of not repeating the alleged acts failed to inspire confidence, alongside concerns over potential disturbance of public tranquility. Fresh sureties were also deemed necessary as prior sureties failed to ensure appearance. Meanwhile, CGP founder Abhijit Dipke criticized the proceedings, alleging misuse of state machinery, courts, and police to stifle dissent and target youth opposition voices.
