A fresh FIR has been filed against Alt News co-founder Mohammed Zubair for using alleged derogatory language on Twitter. He has been taken to Uttar Pradesh's Sitapur in connection with the case.
The FIR was registered in June against Zubari for using alleged derogatory language against Mahant Bajrang Muni Udasin, Rashtriya Sanrakshak of Rashtriya Hindu Sher Sena along with Yati Narsinghanand and Swami Anand Swaroop.
The development came after Delhi court had dismissed the bail plea of Mohammed Zubair and sent him to 14-day judicial custody in a case
related to a 2018 "objectionable tweet".
The FIR says, "Mohammed Zubair addressed the manager of holy shrine, and patron of national hindu sher sena, Mahant Bajrang Muni Ji with abusive words like hate mongres. On Twitter, Zuber also humiliated Yati Narsimhanand Saraswati and Swami Anand Swaroop."
"It was done deliberately under a well thought out conspiracy to spread hatred in the society and to create Muslim disputes and to attack the religious sentiments of Hindus. Due to this rash act, there is anger and dissatisfaction among all of us Hindus," it read.
