Nuh violence: Accused Bittu Bajrangi sent to 14-day judicial custody

Cow vigilante Bittu Bajrangi has been sent to 14-day judicial custody in connection with communal clashes that erupted in Haryana's Nuh district on July 31. This comes a day after Nuh district court had sent Bajrangi to one-day police custody on Wednesday. 

Earlier on Tuesday (August 15), Bittu Bajrangi alias Raj Kumar was arrested from Faridabad after a new FIR was filed against him at the Nuh's Sadar police station in response to a complaint by Assistant Superintendent of Police Usha



Kundu.

The FIR claims that Bajrangi and several of his unidentified supporters mistreated and threatened a police team led by ASP Kundu after they were stopped while travelling with swords and trishuls to the Nalhar temple. Bajrangi had been arrested by Faridabad police two days after the violence in connection with another case related to the communal clashes but was released on bail after he joined the investigation. He was charged with making incendiary speeches and brandishing weapons in public.
