Teams are working to arrest other accused. Content published on social media regarding this is irresponsible and unverified. The incident took place over an amulet. We have registered FIR against those who published this on social media to give it a different angle, 7 people and Twitter and Twitter India named in FIR.” He further said, “Our team is monitoring this continuously. Stringent action will be taken against all attempts to disturb communal harmony and peace. Accused do not belong to a single community, they belong to more than one community.” Recently, a video went viral on social media where six people could be seen trashing an elderly man. The assailants also chopped off the victims' beard and it was reported that the victim was made to chant slogans like “Jai Shree Ram” and “Vande Mataram”.
