Delhi Police have initiated an investigation into threatening communications directed at the magistrate overseeing bail hearings for political leaders Sourav Das and Ashutosh Ranka. The report was filed against unknown persons following the incident during the judicial proceedings.
The Common Man's Party (CJP) had earlier leveled allegations that the bail process faced unexplained delays and that bail bonds were being rejected without adequate justification. The party's claims regarding procedural irregularities in the case remain under scrutiny.
The threat to the judicial officer underscores concerns about intimidation attempts during high-profile legal proceedings. Authorities have begun efforts to identify those responsible for the threatening communications.
The incident highlights growing tensions surrounding the bail applications of the two political figures. Investigations into both the original matter involving Das and Ranka, as well as the separate threats against the magistrate, are ongoing.
