Bahadurpura Police registered a case against Goshamahal MLA T Raja Singh for allegedly making a derogatory statement. Finding objection to Mr. Raja Singh specifically taking the name of an accused in the rape and murder of 27-year-old veterinarian in Shadnagar, a complainant from Kishanbagh found it insulting to their community.
Mr Raja Singh uploaded a video on November 29. Citing a statement made in the video, the complainant requested police to take strict action against Mr Singh at the earliest. The police registered a case after going through the video.
“A case under Section 295-A (Deliberate and malicious acts, intended to outrage religious feelings of any class by insulting its religion or religious beliefs) was registered against Mr Raja Singh,” said A Narsimha Rao, Bahadurpura Police Sub-Inspector. In a video Mr. Singh released in reaction to the case, he questioned on what basis the Bahadurpura police registered the case and added that the four accused should be hanged.
