After Dipke walked out, he posted a photo of his jailed comrades and said "Now just waiting for my brothers to be free." This shows the solidarity that keeps the CJP movement alive.
Dipke was granted bail by a Special Executive Magistrate after signing a Rs 50,000 peace bond, whereas Das and Ranka were remanded to five days of judicial custody under the same provisions for violating a prior bond and entering Jantar Mantar despite a police order.
The trio’s arrests stem from protests over alleged electoral fraud that began on Oct. 10, when Dipke was detained at Delhi airport and later at a flight, and from a march at Connaught Place that the police barred. Earlier, a court had ordered them to stay away from Jantar Mantar after a ban was lifted on Oct. 11.
Their custody will end on Sunday, Oct. 18, after which a court hearing on their case is scheduled for Monday, Oct. 19, when the magistrate will decide whether to extend the bond or release them. The protests continue to echo in the streets, with a 30‑year‑old farmer from West Delhi voicing his frustration that the demonstrations have stalled his ability to plant crops.
