Mumbai police registered an FIR on October 3 concerning the Cockroach Janta Party’s protest at Shivaji Park the previous day. The Times of India and Press Trust of India reported the action on Saturday, citing police. The complaint covers organisers and an estimated 400–500 unidentified participants.

Police alleged unlawful assembly, obstruction of traffic and use of loudspeakers without permission. The case invokes provisions of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita and Maharashtra Police Act. A Shivaji Park police official told PTI that a local resident had complained, no one had been arrested in this case and investigation was continuing.

The October 2 demonstration sought Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar’s resignation over alleged irregularities in voter-roll revision. The Times of India reported that CJP founder Abhijeet Dipke defended peaceful assembly for voting rights as a constitutional right. The FIR records allegations requiring investigation; it does not establish that organisers or participants committed an offence.
