GURUGRAM: Hindu activists in the Brajmandal Jalabhishek Yatra were carrying swords, trishuls, and illegal weapons despite police restrictions, Assistant Superintendent of Police (ASP), Usha Kundu said in her complaint.
She also said that during peace committee meetings held before the yatra, the organisers were also urged not to carry any kind of weapons during the yatra.
In her complaint, Kundu said, “I was on law and order duty with my team 300 meters from the Nalhar temple at around 12.30 p.m. on July 31. We saw a mob of around 15-20 people carrying swords and trishuls marching to Nalhar temple. To maintain law and order, my team had tried to snatch swords and trishuls but they became furious and they started raising slogans against the police. They manhandled my team and even snatched their weapons back from the police vehicles.”
“We kept their weapons in our vehicles but they went ahead and squatted in front of vehicles. Another police team came to intervene, but they opened the back door of our official vehicle and fled with the weapons. Bittu and others who had misbehaved with us and threatened to kill us were identified in the footage,” the ASP said in her complaint. (IANS)
