At about 11:30 pm the Assistant Commissioner of Police, Sub-Division Kamla Market, passed a prohibitory order for the area. The order recited that it was passed ex parte because it could not be served individually, and that it would be published through the press and on official notice boards. In the Supreme Court, Justice Swatanter Kumar found that the police made no public announcement asking the crowd to leave, contrary to Delhi Police Standing Order 309, and Justice B.S. Chauhan found that the crowd was not informed of the order and the assembly was never declared unlawful. [1]
