JNUSU Demands Release of 14 Students Despite Bail, Alleges 'Illegal Detention'
•JNUSU seeks immediate release of 14 students, including three office bearers, arrested after a 'Long March' to the Ministry of Education.
•Students were granted bail, but procedural delays like permanent address verification have kept them in Tihar Jail.
•JNUSU general secretary Sunil Yadav called the situation a 'legal deadlock' and 'illegal detention', stating 'the process remains the punishment'.
•The union alleges police action led to injuries, with two students sustaining fractures and Joint Secretary Danish Ali not receiving proper medical care for a fractured leg.
