Parliament breach | Act a well-planned conspiracy, Delhi Police tell court

Seeking custody of four persons, arrested for the security breach in Parliament on December 13, the Delhi Police told the Patiala House Court that the accused had carried pamphlets claiming Prime Minister Narendra Modi to be a “missing person” and “proclaimed offender”.

The Delhi Police have invoked anti-terror provisions of the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act on the accused, identified as Manoranjan D., Sagar Sharma, Amol Shinde, and Neelam Devi. On December 14, the Patiala House Court granted the police seven days’ custody of all the accused.

Assistant Public Prosecutor (APP) Atul Srivastava informed Additional Sessions Judge Hardeep Kaur that the act was “a well-planned conspiracy” and attack on the Parliament of India. Also, the accused could be associated with “terrorist organisations”.
