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

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

RSS leader T G Mohandas, who made inflammatory remarks at a Jantar Mantar protest, was arrested on Sunday. The police action came after a complaint alleging the videos on his YouTube channel Pathrika were aimed at disrupting public peace and causing fear. The BJP criticized the police for what they deemed a discriminatory move, accusing the Kerala government of using the incident to distract from flood relief issues and protests in coastal areas.

Mohandas was taken to a hospital for a medical check-up before being transferred to Thiruvananthapuram, where he would face detailed questioning as part of the investigation.
