Abhijeet Dipke’s family unsure if he can attend grandmother’s last rites after detention
The family remains uncertain whether Dipke will be able to attend her last rites, as they have been unable to contact him following his detention
Abhijeet Dipke's family is uncertain if he will be able to attend his grandmother's last rites after his detention by Delhi police. Savitribai Dipke, the 85-year-old founder of the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP), died at their ancestral home in Hingoli district, Maharashtra, on Saturday. Abhijeet was detained in New Delhi hours before her passing but has been unreachable by his family.
His father, Bhagwanrao Dipke, informed the media that they have been unable to contact him and are unsure if he will be able to return in time for the funeral. Abhijeet's mother, Anita, expressed hope that her son would attend the last rites but acknowledged that the family is uncertain whether he will prioritize attending his grandmother's final moments or the country.
CJP media in-charge Vijay Mallangi alleged that party members were denied access to Dipke and his lawyers, raising concerns about the circumstances of his detention.
