Aditya Anand, a BTech graduate from NIT Jamshedpur, faces serious allegations as he is accused of being the 'mastermind' behind the April 13 workers' protest in Noida. He is set to appear in a Gurgaon court on May 6 regarding a First Information Report (FIR) linked to violent protests that occurred in Manesar on April 9. The FIR, lodged by an HR personnel from Richa Global Exports Pvt. Ltd., claims that approximately 200-250 protesters engaged in stone pelting, vandalism, and arson, damaging vehicles and assaulting employees. Despite prohibitory orders, the protests escalated into violence, prompting police to respond with force. Anand is currently in police custody along with two other accused. Meanwhile, the National Human Rights Commission has received a complaint alleging the illegal detention of over 1,000 individuals, including around 350 juveniles, during the Noida unrest. The complaint highlights that many detainees were not informed of their arrest or presented before magistrates within the required timeframe. The Centre of Indian Trade Unions (CITU) condemned the police's actions, claiming that the administration violently suppressed what began as a peaceful protest and demanded the immediate release of jailed workers.
