India arrests villagers for cheering Pak cricketers
NEW DELHI: Indian police said on Tuesday they had arrested 15 Muslim villagers and charged them with sedition -- punishable by life in prison -- for celebrating Pakistan’s victory over India’s cricketers in the Champions Trophy.
The villagers were arrested in the Burhanpur district of Madhya Pradesh state on Monday after police received a complaint that they set off fire*****ers and shouted slogans following Pakistan’s dramatic win on Sunday. "We received a complaint from a local Hindu man who accused them of celebrating after India lost the match," Burhanpur police chief Raja Ram Parihar said. The accused have also been charged with criminal conspiracy, the ******r said, adding the celebrations continued for hours in the sensitive locality. The village has a large Muslim population and a history of communal clashes between the two communities. Passions run high over cricket in India -- particularly when it comes to arch-rival Pakistan. Around 60 students from India were arrested on sedition charges after they were accused of celebrating Pakistan’s victory over India in 2014. Last year a Pakistani man was arrested for waving an Indian flag after his idol Indian batsman Virat Kohli made a match-winning century. أكثر... ??????? ??????: India arrests villagers for cheering Pak cricketers || ??????: ahlam1399 || ??????: اسم منتداك
