The record
Written from the 2 reports below. Nothing here is unsourced.
- A Delhi court has cancelled non-bailable warrants against student leader and CPI-M leader Aishe Ghosh in a 2021 protest case outside Banga Bhawan, after she appeared in person before the Patiala House court and paid a ₹1,000 cost.
- The warrants stemmed from a February 2021 demonstration against police action on CAA-NRC protesters in Kolkata, in which an FIR was filed against Ghosh and 15 others.
- The cancellation followed a confrontation when Delhi Police entered the CPI-M office to execute the warrants, an action party members linked to her role in recent central Delhi protests.
- Arguments on the charges in the case have yet to begin.
What to watch next
- Whether Ghosh continues to appear at future hearings, as the court directed her to appear in person on the next date.
- Progress of the case, since arguments on framing of charges are still pending.
- Any follow-up action or protests related to the CPI-M's allegation that the warrant execution was politically motivated.
