India's "Cockroach Party" leaders released from detention
Three leaders of India's Cockroach Janata Party, a youth movement, were released Sunday, a day after they were detained ahead of protests against a contentious revision of voter lists.
What the coverage shows
The coverage converges on the detention of Cockroach Janta Party leaders and the broader police crackdown around protests over voter-list changes. The Sunday reports shift to release, with CBS News, France 24, the South China Morning Post and the New York Times all saying the leaders were freed, while France 24 is the only outlet to say a court ordered it. The Guardian US and earlier Sky News and Channel 4 pieces foreground the scale of the detentions and crackdown more than the later release.
