RSS leader, who said ‘rapes and murders will happen’ at Jantar Mantar protest, held

RSS leader T G Mohandas was arrested on Sunday for allegedly making inflammatory remarks during a Jantar Mantar protest. The comments, made in a YouTube video, suggested that rapes and murders could occur during the protest, and that law enforcement should withdraw from the area. The incident has sparked controversy, with the BJP accusing the Kerala government of using the case to divert attention from other issues.

Mohandas was taken into custody by a team from the Thiruvananthapuram Cyber Police Station, who collected information about his YouTube account and digital devices. He was subsequently questioned at a hospital and subsequently moved to Thiruvananthapuram.
