Belagavi, Mar 5: Days after a young Hindutva activist was arrested in Udupi for recording and spreading a pro-Pakistan video to defame Muslims in the region, the Karnataka police have cracked a similar case in Belagavi district by arresting another miscreant.

The accused is Nagaraj Mali, a resident of Kankanwadi in Ramdurg taluk. According to police, he hacked the Facebook of his Muslim friend Mohammad Shafi Benne of Ramdurg and posted pro-Pakistan messages with malicious intent.

During interrogation Nagaraj admitted that he committed the crime to take revenge against his friend after he refused to lend money. He was remanded to judicial custody.

Mohammad Shafi, who was shocked to notice anti-India and pro-Pakistan messages on his Facebook wall, had filed a complaint, saying his account was hacked. Subsequently, it came to light that the posts had been uploaded from a device other than his mobile phone.

Addressing media persons on Monday, Superintendent of Police Sudheer Kumar Reddy said the police, on Sunday evening, detained Nagaraj, who was running a computer centre and had created the Facebook account for Mohammad Shafi. After suffering losses Nagaraj closed down the centre. He was earlier a Congress worker but gradually became closer to Hindutva groups.

Mohammad Shafi had given monetary assistance to Nagaraj, but distanced himself from him after the latter sought more money. The police have booked a case under various sections of the IT Act.
