00:00No relief for CGP leaders Saurav Das and Ashutosh Ranka as their judicial custody has now been
00:05extended by two days. Both CGP leaders will remain in Tihar jail till October 21st in connection
00:11with the trespassing case that has now been transferred to the crime branch. Earlier,
00:15Delhi court observed that CGP leaders had deliberately breached their peace bonds
00:20and that their conduct showed disregard for the law. It also claimed that their assurances of not
00:26repeating the alleged acts failed to inspire confidence. The court also expressed concerns
00:31over the possibility of a breach of peace and disturbance of public tranquility.
00:35Now, the CGP leaders have strongly criticized the proceedings, alleging that the extension of
00:40custody amounts to mental torture and an attempt to stifle dissent. They have said that they will
00:46challenge the decision, questioning the grounds for continued judicial custody. CGP founder Abhijit
00:51Dipke has also launched a sharp attack on Prime Minister Modi, alleging that state machinery is
00:55being used against opposition voices. Hailing the CGP leader's strength, he also accused the Modi
01:00government of using courts and police to silence dissent. Abhijit Dipke asserted that the CGP would
01:06not back down and that the youth could not be silenced through the use of state machinery.
01:12The police, the courts, the courts, the strength of Modi, the strength of Modi. The whole state machinery
01:21used by using two children, who have the children of Modi's father's parents, if they have the
01:27family, if they have their children, then the children of Sorovarashun's father's parents are in jail,
02:00I don't know.
02:03It is unfortunate how many procedural delays are being caused just to keep people behind the bars for no good
02:21reason.
02:22Procedure that is entirely in the hands of this court and its staff are being misused.
02:27They are being made up, excuses are being made up, explanations are not being offered
02:31and judicial custody is just being extended for no reason at all.
02:37Let's now take a look at the observations of the Delhi court on Saurav Das and Ashutosh Ranka and why
02:43they are still in jail.
02:44So the court said that Das and Ranka deliberately broke the peace bonds that they had signed on October 11th
02:51and their conduct showed disrespect for the law and there are fears of a fresh breach of peace.
02:57Hence, the judicial custody has been extended, promised not to repeat, the act failed to convince.
03:05So the court said that their promise that they will not be repeating, these acts are not convincing
03:11and the fresh sureties were found unfit in the matter.
03:16So that's also a very crucial point that was made by the Delhi court.
03:18The sureties failed to ensure their appearance and the fresh sureties required for both,
03:24there are fresh sureties which are required for both respondents and hence these were the reasons that were cited by
03:29the Delhi court.
03:30These were the observations that were cited by the Delhi court for extending the judicial custody of Ashutosh Ranka and
03:38Saurav Das by two days.
03:39Now they will be in Tihar jail till October 21st, that is till tomorrow.
