Haredi draft evaders: Yeshiva student arrested and handed over to Military Police
Escalation in draft battle: Yeshiva student arrested, clashes erupt at Maccabim checkpoint.
Delhi police are set to file an FIR following a complaint alleging injuries caused by pellet gun usage during the July 20 Jantar Mantar protest. This comes after Congress leader Rahul Gandhi staged a dharna at Parliament Street Police Station, demanding action against the police. The student, who had initially approached the police with a written complaint, alleged that the police had refused to register an FIR despite his efforts.
Gandhi accompanied the student to the police station on Friday and demanded the registration of the case, resulting in the alleged conversion of the complaint into an FIR. The incident is one of several incidents involving pellet guns during the protests, which have sparked calls for an independent probe into the police's handling of the demonstrations.
The Supreme Court has constituted a committee to investigate allegations of police excesses during the July 20 protests.
