The Delhi Police started an inquiry on Thursday after two of the nine JNU students, on whom it wants to conduct a lie detection test in connection with the Najeeb Ahmed case, filed a complaint that “defamatory” posters were put up on campus accusing them of delaying probe in the case.
They claimed the posters were seen late on Wednesday night. In a written complaint to Vasant Kunj (North) police station, the students, who are also ABVP members, said, “The posters were unnamed... but when we caught people making the posters red-handed at Sabarmati Hostel...they started making abusive and casteist comments and threatened us.” The complainants claimed they belong to the SC/ST community.
