Police in India detained the environmental activist Sonam Wangchuk as he led supporters to Delhi after a month-long protest march from Kashmir. The 58-year-old was released the same night. However, he was re-arrested when he and his supporters insisted on marching into the capital.
Wangchuk went on a hunger strike in a police station to demand a visit to the tomb of Indian freedom leader Mahatma Gandhi on his birth anniversary on Wednesday.
