Mangaluru, Jan 29: A day after a senior leader of Vishwa Hindu Parishad called upon the Hindus to support the extremists who killed an innocent Muslim man earlier this month in Mangaluru, several organisations and political parties on Monday demanded his immediate arrest.

Speaking at a book release function to in the city on Sunday, Jagadish Shenava, Dakshina Kannada district unit president of VHP, had called upon the Hindu society to support the accused persons involved in the murder of Ahmed Basheer, an innocent Muslim man who was hacked to death by saffron activists earlier this month in the city. He also stated there is nothing wrong in murdering any innocent Muslim in retaliation for the murder of a Hindu.

Reacting sharply to the statement, the local unit of Popular Front of India said that killing innocents for political gains is part of Sangh Parivar’s agenda. In a statement issued here, the PFI said that Mangaluru city police should prove its efficiency by registering a suo motu case against the hate speaker and arresting him immediately. “This is not the first time. Mr Shenava has tried to disrupt peace in the past too. He is a threat to the communal amity and peace. He should be arrested and imprisoned,” it said.

Meanwhile, Social Democratic Party of India said that the Mr Shenava’s shameless statement proves that the murders of Deepak Rao and Basheer were a part of a major conspiracy by communal forces to create violence and unleash bloodshed in the region ahead of assembly polls.

Democratic Youth Federation of India State president Muneer Katipalla said that Mr. Shenva should be arrested for spreading communal hatred. He said that the state government should immediately withdraw security cover given to Mr Shenva.

Mr Katipalla said that the statement clearly showed the involvement of communal forces in the revengeful murders on communal lines reported in the district.

Terming Mr Shenava’s statement as the height of shamelessness and barbarism, Dakshina Kannada District Congress Committee said that police should take necessary action against him and practically give a strong message to those who support killers.
