'They Have Detained My Friend': Woman Tries To Stop Police Van During Mumbai CJP Protest, Gets Whisked Away By Cops In 5 Sec | VIDEO

Mumbai: A video has surfaced on social media, showing a woman trying to prevent police from removing protesters from a van. The incident occurred during a protest in Mumbai on October 10, where supporters of the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) were staging a demonstration in solidarity with those protesting the Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar in Delhi.

The woman, seen standing in front of the van, shouted, “They have detained my friend.” However, it was later reported that she was taken away by the police within five seconds. The protests were called by Tushar Gandhi, a prominent figure in the movement, who demanded the resignation of Gyanesh Kumar over the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls.

Over 400 people were detained during the protest, with many arrested at August Kranti Maidan and Nana Chowk. Tushar Gandhi was also detained while approaching the protest site but was later released. Mumbai Police have filed an FIR at Gamdevi Police Station in connection with the protest at August Kranti Maidan.
