Police search for absconding rowdy sheeter Raghu; security tightened in Sakleshpur
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.
