An executive court in Delhi has ordered the release of the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) founder Abhijeet Dipke and other leaders Saurav Das and Ashutosh Ranka, the youth-led movement said on Sunday. The three were detained ahead of a large protest in Dehli on Saturday and appeared in court earlier on Sunday after being in detention for nearly 24 hours. Earlier, the CJP had alleged the leaders were being detained at an undisclosed location and did not have access to their lawyers.
