A police van carrying the accused in Shraddha Walker’s murder case, Aftab Poonawala was attacked by a group right wing people. They had swords with them and waited outside the Forensic Science Laboratory in Rohini where he was taken for a polygraph test on Monday.
The attackers flashed swords towards the police personnel but cops present in the vehicle pointed guns at them to defend and overpower them. However, they detained the accused.
A car stopped the police van in the evening after overtaking it. A few people came out of the car and started attacking the van carrying Poonawala, they said
The van was driven out of the spot while two attackers were detained. According to the police the incident took place around 6.45 pm.
No one was injured as the police fired few rounds in the air. Furthermore, they managed to catch two of the attackers and sent them to judicial custody. They are Nigam Gujjar and Kuldeep Thakur, who claim they are members of a right wing group called Hindu Sena
Reacting to the incident, Hindu Sena national president Vishnu Gupta, said, “Whatever these activists have done is by reacting to their personal feelings. The whole country got to know how Poonawala cut a Hindu girl into pieces.”
“The organisation does not support any such work which is against the Constitution of India. We believe in the law,” he said
