New Delhi: Thirty people, including several members and the chief of right-wing Hindu outfit ‘Sangeet Som Sena’, have been charged with rioting and looting after they vandalised a biryani-seller’s cart in Uttar Pradesh’s Meerut.
The biryani vendor, Mohd Sajid, has said that his cart was vandalised while he was selling biryani near a market in Sardhana.
“They threw away all the food, vandalised my cart and took away my money,” Sajid said in his police complaint, according to the Times of India.
Despite the FIR, Khatik has shown no remorse over the vandalism.
Former BJP MLA Som, whose supporters Khatik and others claim to be, has made the news several times in the past for his anti-Muslim speeches and other controversial behaviour.
