Six CJP Women Volunteers Released in Guwahati

Six volunteers affiliated with the Civil Justice Programme (CJP) were released in Guwahati after a short period of detention. The authorities confirmed that the volunteers had been taken into custody earlier in the day but were allowed to leave following a review of the case. No charges were filed and the release was described as a procedural matter. CJP volunteers typically work on community outreach and legal awareness, and the incident has prompted the organization to review its security protocols.

Local police spokespersons stated that the detainment was related to a misunderstanding over a scheduled event in the city. The volunteers were escorted to a police station where they were questioned before being released. The CJP team expressed gratitude for the swift resolution and pledged to continue their outreach activities in the region.

The incident has drawn attention from local media, with several outlets covering the brief detention and subsequent release. The CJP organization has issued a statement reassuring its members and partners that they remain committed to their mission of promoting justice and legal literacy across Assam.
