The recent controversy in Mhow, Madhya Pradesh, made headlines on social media and news channels. It was claimed that a religious place was attacked with a sutli bomb, but the police investigation and the video footage that came out exposed this claim.
There were reports of violence breaking out in an area of Mhow, in which stone-pelting and some anti-social elements did vandalism. After this, the Qazi of the area claimed that a sutli bomb was thrown at a mosque, which spoiled the atmosphere. After this statement, the whole matter took a serious turn, and communal concern started to increase. The police investigation has not found any concrete evidence of the throwing of a sutli bomb inside the mosque so far.
According to sources, the police have so far registered 8 FIRs in the case of violence in Mhow. According to the police, more than 50 people have been named, while 50 unidentified accused have been identified. A total of more than 100 people have been booked.
So far, no concrete evidence of the throwing of sutli bombs inside the mosque has been found in the police investigation. At the same time, the people seen in the viral videos are wearing masks and pelting stones. However, earlier, the Imam of the mosque had claimed that the dispute escalated only after throwing sutli bombs. Maulana’s claims are proving to be wrong.
An intensive investigation is going on as to how such a large number of stones were available during the violence. Police are also investigating whether this violence was preplanned. The DIG warned of strict action and said that strict action would be taken against anyone who breaks the law and order. At present, there is peace in the area.
The administration has increased surveillance on social media. So that any misleading information or rumor can be stopped. People have been appealed to trust only official information.
