Court extends judicial custody for CJP leaders Saurav Das, Ashutosh Ranka

The judicial custody of CJP leaders Saurav Das and Ashutosh Ranka has been extended for an additional two days, according to an order issued by a Special Executive Magistrate. The extension carries several serious allegations against the accused, with the court detailing reasons for the prolonged detention.

In the magistrate's order, the court cited alleged violations of bail conditions and disrespect towards the judicial process as key factors in its decision to extend their custody. The detailed reasons provided in the order indicate that the court found sufficient grounds to believe the accused had breached the terms of their release.

The two leaders are now set to remain in judicial custody until October 21, 2026. The case remains under investigation, with authorities working to examine the specific allegations that prompted the extended detention.

This development adds to ongoing legal proceedings involving the communist organization's leadership. The court's detailed reasoning in extending custody suggests the magistrate determined that the conditions warranted continued detention pending further investigation and proceedings.
