Senior Bharatiya Janata Party leader Yashwant Sinha was arrested for leading a demonstration in Jharkhand's Hazaribagh town and was sent to judicial custody Tuesday after he refused to furnish the bail bond.
A court in Hazaribagh Tuesday sent Sinha to 14 days' judicial custody as he refused to furnish the bail bond.
