  "account": "India's High Court announced on Sunday that it would hear an appeal against a group of protesters known as the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP). The CJP's founder, Abhijeet Dipke, along with other party leaders Saurav Das and Ashutosh Ranka, were among those detained during a recent protest in New Delhi. The court's decision came after the Supreme Court previously ruled against a complete shutdown of public transport ahead of the demonstration. The CJP had previously accused authorities of detaining the leaders at an undisclosed location and not providing them access to legal representation. The protesters, who claimed they had a fundamental right to demonstrate, were met with a strong police response, with mobile internet services suspended and numerous metro stations shut down.",
