Man detained in Karnataka for updating WhatsApp status in support of Palestine
Mangalore Today News Network
Vijayanagar, Oct 13, 2023: Police in Karnataka’s Vijayanagar district have detained a 20-year-old man named Alam Pasha for updating his WhatsApp status in support of Palestine.
The police received intelligence that certain individuals in Hospet, Vijaynagar, were showing support for Palestine during the Israel-Hamas conflict. They were found to be allegedly circulating “anti-national” videos, which had the potential to disrupt law and order in Hospet.
As a preventive measure, the police detained Alam Pasha to prevent the further circulation of such videos.
A case has been registered against Pasha on charges of disseminating seditious matters. He has been taken into custody for questioning and will be produced before an executive magistrate.
An unprecedented attack against Israel by Hamas militants from Gaza on October 7 and the subsequent Israeli retaliation has left more than 2,800 people dead on both sides. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has vowed to “crush and destroy” Hamas.
On the other hand, in the sealed-off Gaza Strip, Palestinian suffering continued to mount as Israeli bombardment demolished entire neighbourhoods.
