Sindagi:
The investigations into the hoisting of Pakistani national flag on
New Year’s day at Sindagi, have revealed that the mastermind of
the crime was an RSS backed elected repetitive from Bharatiya
Janata Party, a media report claimed.
“The entire incident was carried out at the behest of an elected
representative of the BJP, whose political agenda was to foment
communal disturbances in the district”, a newsportal quoted a
senior police officer as saying.
According to Coastal Digest, the police officer also
revealed that the elected representative had instructed his
supporters to destroy all evidence of his involvement, including
photographs of the protesters and the banners of the organisation.
Police have already arrested seven Hindutva activists for what the
former believe was a plot to foment communal strife by hoisting
the Pakistani flag and then blaming it on the Muslim community.
Interestingly, all the accused had staged demonstrations in the
town the very next day of flag hoisting to protest the delay in
arresting those responsible for the reprehensible act. They also
tried to manhandle Bijapur district Superintend of Police D C
Rajappa and other officers when they visited the spot, Coastal
Digest claimed.
Meanwhile, members of the district unit of Sri Ram Sene have said
the accused do not belong to their outfit but are members of the
Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), the report said.
The website said, at a press conference here, Ram Sene members
released several pictures to prove their point, alleging that the
police had been pressured not to drag the name of the RSS into the
issue.
It can be recalled that former chief minister HD Kumaraswamy also
had blamed RSS and BJP for the incident. “I am told that the RSS
was behind the incident. It is shameful that the BJP is trying to
create communal unrest for political gains,” he said.
