Around 100 CJP 'peaceful' protesters gherao RAF officer, assault him brutally; FIR filed

On Tuesday, July 21, a mob of around 100 CJP 'student' protesters launched a brutal attack on Rapid Action Force (RAF) personnel amid the 'peaceful' protest in New Delhi. The video of the incident is making rounds on social media, in which hundreds of people posing as 'student' protesters can be seen gheraoing the RAF personnel and assaulting them. In another video that is making rounds on social media, the 'peaceful' protesters can be seen yelling that 'bhaga diya, bhaga diya' (we made him run away), directing it to the Delhi Police officer.

 

 

Following this, the Delhi Police have registered an FIR in the case. Further details regarding the accused and charges are awaited. As per the reports, a total of 10 FIRs have been registered so far in connection with the CJP protest and various law-and-order incidents during the demonstration.

 

 The cases have been registered at multiple police stations across central Delhi. Parliament Street Police Station has registered four FIRs, while Connaught Place Police Station has registered three cases. One FIR each has been filed at Mandir Marg Police Station, Barakhamba Road Police Station and Kartavya Path Police Station.

 

 

 

According to police, the FIRs relate to different incidents reported during the protest and matters involving the maintenance of public order. The investigation into all the cases is currently underway. The FIRs come after clashes broke out during the CJP-led 'Sansad Chalo' march on Monday, when thousands of protesters and students attempted to march from Jantar Mantar towards Parliament. Police had placed barricades and imposed restrictions to prevent the march from moving beyond the designated protest area.
