Mumbai police have registered nine FIRs across six police stations in South Mumbai against agitators linked to the recent Maratha Morcha, officials said on Wednesday. The cases, filed over the past three days under the jurisdiction of Zone 1, pertain to unlawful assembly, traffic disruption, and violations of prohibitory orders during the protest.

According to police, two FIRs were lodged at Marine Drive, three at Azad Maidan, and one each at MRA Marg, JJ Marg, Dongri, and Colaba police stations. Senior officers said the offences include blocking traffic, staging demonstrations without permission, and disobedience of lawful orders.

Most of the cases have been booked under provisions of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS) relating to unlawful assembly, wrongful restraint, and disobedience of public orders, along with sections of the Maharashtra Police Act. Investigators are scanning video footage to identify more participants.
