The injured Sub-Inspector, Jitendra Dani of the CoBRA 209 Battalion, CRPF, was immediately airlifted to Ranchi for treatment. According to officials, his condition is stable.

The incident took place Wednesday night, Kapurthala SHO Manjit Singh said. 

“This incident has shaken everyone. It tells how much dignity and respect Muslims have. I want to ask the Prime Minister (Narendra Modi), because law and order in Delhi is under the Union government. I want to ask the Prime Minister, and Bharatiya Janata Party people — the (person), who was kicked and insulted, belongs to which family?” the AIMIM chief asked.

Sub-inspector Manoj Kumar Tomar shoved and kicked a few people offering namaz on a road in the north Delhi area on Friday, leading to a protest by hundreds of locals against the force, and suspension of the accused with immediate effect.
