A 39-year-old man has been arrested for allegedly carrying a live cartridge to Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal's residence on Monday.
Additional Deputy Commissioner of Police (North) Harendra Singh said that the accused has been identified as Mohd Imran who works as a caretaker in a Karol Bagh mosque.
Police said that accused had come with 12 other Imams and Maulvis to meet Mr Kejriwal in connection with increasing salary of staff working in Delhi Waqf Board.
"During search and frisking at the residence, he was found carrying a live cartridge of .32 bore in his wallet. He was then apprehended and handed over to local police. A case under Arms Act has been registered and he has been arrested," Mr Singh said.
During interrogation, Imran allegedly told police that he had found the cartridge in the donation box two-three months ago and planned to throw it in the Yamuna but eventually did not do so and kept it in his wallet.
