Parliament breach probe: Delhi Police questions 2 more people
PTI citing police sources, while one of them is said to be a close friend of accused Manoranjan D and belongs to Karnataka, the other hails from Uttar Pradesh. Meanwhile, Police have detained a man from Karnataka's Bagalkote, who was accused D.
Manoranjan's roommate during their engineering college days, in connection with the Parliament security breach case, ANI reported. They are suspected to be a part of the now-deleted Facebook page 'Bhagat Singh Fan Club', which was created by the accused before the security breach incident, sources told PTI.
In a major security breach on the anniversary of the 2001 Parliament terror attack last Wednesday, two men -- Sagar Sharma and Manoranjan D -- jumped into the Lok Sabha chamber from the public gallery during Zero Hour, released coloured smoke and shouted slogans, before being overpowered by the MPs. Neelam and Amold Shinde, among others, were apprehended for staging a protest outside the Parliament complex.
The four individuals, including Neelam and Amold Shinde, were arrested and faced charges under the rigorous Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act. As their seven days of police custody conclude on Thursday, they are scheduled to appear before a court, with the Special Cell likely to seek an extension of their custody.
In addition, Lalit Jha and Mahesh Kumawat were subsequently arrested in connection with the case, and they too have undergone interrogation, as informed by the police. (With inputs from agencies)Milestone Alert!
