JNU row: Fresh poster issues death threat to 'traitors' Kanhaiya Kumar, Umar Khalid
New Delhi, Mar 12: Days after posters announcing a reward of Rs 11 lakh on Kanhaiya Kumar came to fore, now, a fresh poster issuing death threats to JNU student leaders Kanhaiya, Umar Khalid and Anirban Bhattacharya, who are facing charge of sedition.
An image of the poster was circulated on WhatsApp and shared on social media with a caption claiming that a copy of it was spotted this morning at Jantar Mantar. However, a police team searched the area and said no such poster was spotted.
The poster also contained a phone number and a passport-size photograph of a man. The poster condemned Congress Vice President Rahul Gandhi and Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal for their support to the JNU students.
"I shall shoot all who celebrated the anniversary of Afzal Guru's hanging... The country faces more threat from traitors than terrorists... Such traitors should face life imprisonment," the poster read.
When asked, Deputy Commissioner of Police (New Delhi) Jatin Narwal said, "We have initiated an enquiry into the matter." When the poster could not be found near Jantar Mantar, police men dialled the phone number mentioned on it, a police official said.
The person who picked up the call, claimed that he runs a shop at Yamuna Bazar area and that he had visited Jantar Mantar today. However, he did not specifically respond to questions about whether he had pasted the poster. This man is likely to be questioned soon, the official added.
On March 7, Delhi Police arrested Adarsh Sharma, who claimed to be president of Purvanchal Sena which had announced through posters a reward of Rs 11 lakh for anyone who "shoots" JNU Students' Union president Kumar.
