Three police stations—MRA Marg, Colaba and Tardeo— have issued show-cause notices to at least 25 people, directing them to sign a bond for two years and furnish sureties ranging from Rs 1 lakh-50 lakh for participating in protests earlier this year against the Citizenship Amendment Act and the attacks on JNU students. As per the terms of the bond, any act that threatens law and order—read future protests—would result in confiscation of the surety and could also lead to externment from Mumbai.
The notices have been issued under sections 107 (security for keeping the peace) and 110 (security for good behaviour from habitual offenders) of the Criminal Procedure Code as part of chapter proceedings. Such proceedings are preventive actions taken by the police if they fear that a person could create trouble and disrupt peace.
