Climate activist Sonam Wangchuk was also detained under the National Security Act and lodged in Jodhpur jail in Rajasthan.<br \/>\n\u201cThe situation remained by and large normal with no untoward incident reported from anywhere. The Lt Governor is scheduled to chair a security review meeting at Raj Bhawan shortly and a decision will be taken on the relaxation of restrictions during the day,\u201d an official said.<br \/>\nHe said mobile internet services in the town remained suspended, while prohibitory orders banning assembly of five or more persons also remained in force in other major parts of the Union Territory including Kargil.<br \/>\nPolice and CRPF personnel in full riot gear were seen deployed in strength in the curfew-bound areas, while ITBP personnel were also seen staging a flag march this morning.<br \/>\nThe last rites of two of the slain persons are scheduled to take place later in the day.<br \/>\nTwo Congress councillors were among several people, who were named in police FIRs following Leh violence, also surrendered in a local court on Saturday.<br \/>\nThe two councillors \u2013- Smanla Dorje Nurbo and Phutsog Stanzin Tsepak \u2014 along with vice president of Ladakh Buddhist Association Savin Rigzin and village numberdar Rigzin Dorjey were sent to police custody, President of Ladakh Bar Association, Leh, Mohd Shafi Lassu said.<br \/>\nHe said the police only sought the custody of these four men while rest of others who also include youth leaders of Leh Apex Body and Ladakh Buddhist Association, and students were remanded to judicial custody.<br \/>\n\u201cThe bar association has taken up all the cases pro bono and is seeking release of all the arrested persons facing charges under various sections of law. We even challenged the public prosecutor when he sought the custody of four persons. The court accepted our plea for their questioning in presence of their counsels and also mandatory checkup after every eight hours,\u201d the lawyer said.<br \/>\nHe said all the persons, including the councillors, are innocent. Tsepak was not the masked person who was shown leading the unruly protesters in photographs or video clips, while Nurbo was in hospital taking care of two elderly persons from his constituency who have fallen seriously ill during the hunger strike on September 23 evening, the lawyer claimed.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_33181\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-33181\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-33181\" src=\"https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/17636284433622594351-300x157.jpeg\" alt=\"Curfew Remains In Force For 5th Day In Leh Town\" width=\"300\" height=\"157\" srcset=\"https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/17636284433622594351-300x157.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/17636284433622594351-768x401.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/17636284433622594351-549x287.jpeg 549w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/17636284433622594351-470x245.jpeg 470w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/17636284433622594351-233x122.jpeg 233w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/17636284433622594351-230x120.jpeg 230w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/17636284433622594351-360x188.jpeg 360w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/17636284433622594351-100x52.jpeg 100w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/17636284433622594351.jpeg 1000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-33181\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Curfew Remains In Force For 5th Day In Leh Town<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Leh, Sep 28: Curfew remained in force in this violence-hit town for the fifth consecutive day on Sunday, with Lt Governor Kavinder Gupta set to hold a security review meeting to take a call on the relaxation in the restrictions, officials said.
