A new video, showing alleged outsiders raising anti-India slogans during a controversial February 9 event in JNU, has given a fresh twist to the case even as police informed the Delhi High Court about presence of some “foreign elements” at the gathering.
The youths, whose faces appear covered, are seen raising slogans against India in the video and police said it is examining the authenticity of the video.
PhD scholar of JNU Umar Khalid, one of the organisers of the event who had surrendered to police last night, is visible in the video but is not seen raising slogans.
Police said it has shortlisted photographs of eight persons who are suspected to be outsiders and allegedly involved in anti-national sloganeering at the event. But they are yet to be identified. The video surfaced on a day the Delhi Police, in its status report filed in the High Court, claimed that besides JNUSU president Kanhaiya Kumar and other accused persons, some “foreign elements” were also present during the event who had “covered” their faces to hide their identity.
