CRPF officer files complaint over alleged mistreatment of women protesters by Delhi police, CAPF
Solanki attached three links to videos from social media which, he said, prima facie show police and CAPF personnel physically mistreating women
The Supreme Court summoned a senior Delhi Police officer to personally explain alleged assaults on women journalists during recent protests in the national capital. Chief Justice Surya Kant instructed the officer to remain present in the court to address the concerns. The development followed a petition filed by the Network of Women in Media, India (NWMI), which sought protection and safeguards for journalists covering protests and public gatherings.
The court will hear the petition along with a contempt petition alleging a violation of the Supreme Court's own order from October 10, which directed media personnel not to be harassed while reporting from protest sites.
