Sakleshpur: As the cops hunt for absconding rowdy sheeter and Bajrang Dal leader Raghu, who recently made a provocative speech against Muslims, additional police security has been provided in town to prevent untoward incidents.
The police have also closed the taluk borders to prevent the rowdy sheeter from escaping from Sakleshpur taluk.
Leading a protest rally by the Bajrang Dal in town on Friday, Raghu had said, “The Police Department has failed in stopping the slaughter of cows. Hindus, safeguard yourselves from Muslim vendors who come to your homes selling vegetable and fish. If necessary, shoot them.”
He added, “Minister Priyank Kharge had recently referred to ‘people from any Dal’ while addressing the policemen. I challenge him to openly say Bajrang Dal, we will show him the power of Bajrang Dal.”
The rowdy sheeter’s provocative speech had gone viral on media as well as social media, but drew widespread open objection too.

Morena, Jan 3: A Dalit woman and her daughter were brutally assaulted on Friday allegedly by two men and then dragged on the road in Morena in Madhya Pradesh following a minor incident involving a dog, a police official said.
A video of the incident, which took place in full public view in Ambah area, went viral on social media.
"Anita Mahor has sustained serious injuries after being hit by sticks and then dragged on the road. Her daughter Bharti is also injured. We have arrested Rajesh Tomar and Kumher Singh Tomar for assaulting them," Ambah police station in charge Satendra Singh Kushwaha said.
"Anita Mahor's son Deepak has told us that his younger brother Santosh was going to throw waste this morning when he was startled by the presence of a dog. He threw the waste, which also included dung, on the dog in fright and fled. This infuriated the two accused," he said.
