CJP protest news LIVE Updates: Saurav Das urges supporters to gather at Parliament street police station
CJP protest news LIVE: The Delhi Police, however, has rejected allegations of political interference in the case after an interview of Swantantra Bhardwaj went viral.
Members of the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) are preparing to assemble at the Parliament Street police station in New Delhi on Friday, demanding action over a viral video. In the footage, Swatantra Bhardwaj alleges he assaulted Sanjay, father of student protester Nishu, during a protest at Jantar Mantar on June 23. The CJP claims Sanjay suffered a head injury from a metal kada during a scuffle, though the Delhi Police asserts the injuries were minor and classified as simple.
Two individuals, Suraj Kumar and Bhardwaj, were detained at the scene and later interrogated. Charges will be filed against them in the near future. CJP founder Abhijeet Dipke has criticized the Delhi Police for allegedly not taking action, alleging that DCP Sachin Sharma refused to arrest the accused, citing a purported phone call from BJP leader Kapil Mishra.
The CJP intends to file a chargesheet in court. The police have denied any political involvement in the case.
