  "account": "Germany-based YouTuber Dhruv Rathee has been detained in Gurugram, India ahead of a protest at Jantar Mantar organized by Chief Justice of India (CJI) Abhijeet Dipke. Police claim Rathee, who recently traveled to India, did not comply with requests from Gurugram and Delhi police to not travel to the national capital for the protest, which has not been granted permission. Delhi has been placed under heavy security, with over 40,000 Delhi Police and Central Armed Police Forces personnel deployed, barricades and spike strips in place. Gurugram police stated that they were forced to detain Rathee after he refused to listen to their lawful requests. The CJI condemned the \"high-handed detention\" of Rathee, calling it part of an aggressive government crackdown to silence democratic dissent over electoral roll irregularities. Rathee had urged people to join the protest at Jantar Mantar in Delhi on Saturday.",
  "summary": "Police teams had reached Rathee's residence in Kendriya Vihar society, Sector 56, Gurugram, ahead of the planned protest in Delhi.",
