Delhi Police Arrest Protest Leaders Over Alleged Peace Bond Violations
Delhi Police arrested leaders from the Cockroach Janta Party and Citizens for Justice and Peace during protests at Jantar Mantar, citing violations of peace bonds requiring good behaviour. The arrested individuals were initially released on bonds under the Bharatiya Nagrik Suraksha Sanhita (BNSS) but were later accused of breaching conditions, leading to judicial custody. The incidents have raised discussions on the legal provisions of peace bonds and the balance between maintaining public order and protecting the right to peaceful protest.
