Team Anna to be kept at Chhatrasal Stadium in case of arrest

New Delhi, Aug 15 (PTI) Delhi government Monday night
decided to allow use of Chhatrasal Stadium in Model Town in
North Delhi for keeping the supporters of Anna Hazare in the
event of their arrest during his protest here tomorrow.
"We have decided that people of Anna Hazare team and his
followers will be kept in the Chhatrasal stadium in case they
are arrested," Delhi Home Secretary Arvind Ray told PTI.
The stadium belongs to Delhi Government.
Delhi Chief Secretary P K Tripathi held a meeting with
top officials Monday evening to deal with the situation that
may arise following team Anna's arrest if they go ahead with
the protest despite Delhi police refusal of permission to the
Gandhian to hold his fast at Jai Prakash Narayan Park.
Ray said Delhi government received a communication from
Delhi police to deploy magistrates along with police to tackle
any untoward incident.
He said the Delhi Law Secretary has already taken up the
issue with judges of Delhi high Court in this regard.
"The magistrates will be deployed by the High Court and
that is why the Law Secretary has taken up the issue with the
High Court", Ray added.
Delhi Police sought the services of two magistrates ahead
of the protest by Team Anna which stuck to its stand of going
ahead with their fast against corruption despite denial of
permission for the agitation.
