Mumbai: Republic TV’s Editor-in-Chief Arnab Goswami was on Wednesday morning arrested by Mumbai Police from his residence in a reported case of abetment to suicide of a 53-year-old architect.

The move by Mumbai Police on Wednesday morning received a mixed reaction with several union ministers and BJP leaders including Union Home Minister Amit Shah, slamming the arrest of Goswami.

However, Twitter users in India lauded the move by Mumbai Police and added that Goswami’s arrest was justified alleging his role in architect Anvay Naik's suicide case.

The users took to the micro-blogging site and soon, hashtag #WellDoneMumbaiPolice was among the top three trending topics on Twitter in India.

Here are some of the tweets from Wednesday’s campaign where the users were seen lauding Mumbai Police for arresting Goswami.
