A 17-year-old boy who had opened fire at anti-CAA protesters outside Jamia Millia Islamia University in New Delhi last year encouraged the crowd at a mahapanchayat in Haryana’s Pataudi to abduct Muslim women.
A purported video of his speech at the mahapanchayat was shared by several people on social media. The teenager, who was sent to a juvenile home, also ‘warned’ those who said he said had a ‘terrorist mindset’, saying if he can ‘go to Jamia in support of CAA, Pataudi is not very far.
The mahapanchayat, was called to discuss religious conversion, ‘love jihad’, and a law to control population. The teenager had opened fire at anti-CAA protesters near Jamia Millia Islamia on January 30, 2020. He brandished a gun at the protesters injuring a student. He was later sent to a correctional home by the juvenile justice board, from where he came out after some months.
