Indian police detained Abhijeet Dipke, founder of the opposition 'Cockroach Janta Party' (CJP) or 'cockroach' movement, in New Delhi on Friday. Dipke was taken into custody ahead of a planned protest in the capital's central business district.

The demonstration was called by Dipke to demand the resignation of India's election chief. It was also organized in support of two other CJP leaders who were detained and sent to jail earlier in the week for five days after demonstrating at a protest site in violation of an active ban.
