CJP alleges detention of Karnataka volunteers near Delhi-Haryana border, seeks details of their whereabouts

New Delhi, Oct 11 (UNI) The Cockroach Janata Party (CJP) today alleged that a group of volunteers travelling from Karnataka to the national capital had been detained near the Delhi-Haryana border and moved away from Delhi under disputed circumstances, raising concerns over their safety and access to legal assistance.
In a statement, the party claimed that the group comprised around 15 to 20 men and 12 to 13 women. It expressed concern over the alleged absence of female police personnel accompanying the team transporting the detainees, questioning whether the prescribed procedures for detaining women were being followed.
The CJP said the volunteers' families and legal representatives in Karnataka were concerned about their whereabouts and well-being, and demanded that the authorities disclose their current location and the circumstances under which they were detained.
The party also called for immediate access to the detainees for their lawyers and legal aid representatives, besides urging law enforcement agencies to ensure compliance with applicable legal safeguards governing the detention of women.
The statement comes amid heightened security in Delhi following protests called by the CJP and student organisations demanding the resignation of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar over alleged irregularities in the Special Intensive Revision of electoral rolls.
The party demanded that the authorities clarify the destination to which the volunteers were being taken and provide information about their detention status. UNI PWS SS
