The fact finding team was on a visit to Bengal to meet the victims in Sandeshkhali, but the police stopped the team before reaching Sandeshkhali.  In protest against this, the fact finding team sat on a dharna there.  After the uproar, the police arrested all the members of the team.  The six-member fact finding team is headed by former Chief Justice of Patna High Court L Narasimha Reddy.  The police stopped the fact finding citing the implementation of Section 144 in Sandeshkhali.  The police stopped the team in Bhojerhat area and then arrested them from there after the uproar.When the police stopped them, team member Charu Wali Khanna said that we were going to Sandeshkhali, but we were stopped.  The police have deliberately stopped us and are creating trouble.  The police are not allowing us to meet the victims.  Khanna said that 'the police should answer why they are detaining us?  The kind of harassment that is being done against women, I wonder what the police did in that case?  The police have no reason to stop us, they are just being asked to do so.
