Fidal Royas, a member of the Democratic Youth Federation of India (DYFI) from Kerala, said the Delhi Police detained him five times between October 2 and October 11. Each day, after being released, Fidal and his comrades returned to the Communist Party of India (Marxist) head office in HKS Surjeet Bhavan, where they were staying, only to return the next day to the protest site.
But on October 11, he was brutally assaulted, leading to a ‘traumatic perforation’ of his eardrum.
