A team of Assam Police has reached Kolkata with an arrest warrant for Wajahat Khan. Social media influencer Sharmistha Panoli was arrested on the complaint of Wajahat Khan. Police said that Wajahat can be arrested for posts containing hate speech and derogatory comments on social media. He is accused of hurting religious sentiments. However, he is currently absconding.
Assam Police registered a case against him earlier this week. News agency PTI reported that Kolkata Police has also registered a case against him based on a complaint by a trust called Shri Ram Swabhiman Parishad. He was not found at his Kolkata home when the police team went there. He also has several cases registered against him in other states.
Wajhat Khan had accused Panoli, who is studying law, of sharing a video on social media, which allegedly used abusive language and hurt religious sentiments. After this, Kolkata Police arrested Sharmistha Panoli. The police had rejected all allegations that they illegally arrested the 22-year-old female influencer for uploading a video containing communal remarks. Defending the arrest of Sharmistha Panoli, the police had claimed that the case was properly investigated and legal procedures were followed.
