The Uttar Pradesh Police has booked Congress general secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra and 10 other people under sections related to preventive custody due to apprehension of breach of peace, officials said, as party leaders questioned her detention beyond 24 hours without an FIR.

The case under Code of Criminal Procedure (CrPC) sections 144,151, 107, 116 (all related to preventive detention due to apprehension of breach of peace) has also been registered against Uttar Pradesh Congress chief Ajay Kumar Lallu and party leader Deependra Hooda, the officials said. "These are preventive sections. Once we get assurance that there would not be a violation of peace by them, these sections will be removed," Sitapur Sub-divisional Magistrate Pyare Lal Maurya said.
