Congress demands judicial probe on violence during "Ram Navami" in Aurangabad

Aurangabad: Former Maharashtra minister and Congress leader Arif Naseem Khan on Wednesday demanded a probe by a sitting high court judge into the violence in Aurangabad city ahead of Ram Navami, saying no report has been brought on the incident yet.

At least 12 persons, including 10 policemen, were



injured after a mob of around 500 people went berserk and hurled stones and petrol-filled bottles when the cops tried to control the situation following a clash between two groups near a Ram temple at Kiradpura locality on the intervening night of March 29 and March 30.

Ram Navami was celebrated on March 30.
