New Delhi: A Delhi court has allowed climate activist Disha Ravi to get warm clothes, masks, books etc. Court also allowed her to speak to her mother and other family members. Court also allowed her to access the copy of the FIR and other documents related to her arrest in the Toolkit matter.
The request for the FIR copy and remand application was opposed by Delhi Police.
Meanwhile, Delhi Police Commissioner SN Srivastava on Tuesday said that all procedures were followed in the arrest of activist Disha Ravi for her alleged involvement in preparing a toolkit that details support for farmers protesting against the Central Government’s agricultural laws.
“As far as Disha’s arrest is concerned, it was done as per the procedures,” Srivastava told media here. “Law does not differentiate between a 22-year-old and a 50-year-old. She was produced before a court which sent her to 5-day Police custody,” Srivastava said.
He argued that it is incorrect to say that there were lapses in the arrest.
