Arrest all accused in 10 days or will gherao DM office, warns CJP · indianexpress.com

Some bad people hurt a man named Abdul and his family.

When Abdul and his family went to the hospital and the police station, a group called CJP says the police were not helpful.

The CJP leaders believe the police were actually protecting the bad people.

A CJP leader named Ranka met with officials and gave them a warning.

The government has ten days to arrest everyone involved in the attack.

It also must do three other things the CJP has asked for.

If the government does not do this, CJP says it will surround the DM office in Bankura to protest.

CJP also wants a court-appointed committee to look into how the police behaved.

And they want guards to keep Abdul's family safe all day and night.
