Court Orders Five-Day Detention for Saurabh Das, Ashutosh Ranka After Jantar Mantar Incident

The Special Executive Magistrate examined the police report, which detailed the group’s forced entry and the subsequent clash with law‑enforcement personnel. Citing the repeated breach of public peace and the risk of the accused repeating their actions if released on bail, the court ordered a five‑day judicial custody for Das and Ranka. The decision also noted their alleged role in urging others online to take part in unlawful demonstrations.
