Man arrested for graffiti on Parliament Street Police Station wall during Rahul Gandhi's Aug 21 protest

Man arrested for graffiti on Parliament Street Police Station wall during Rahul Gandhi's Aug 21 protest

New Delhi [India], August 23 (ANI): Delhi Police arrested an individual in connection with the alleged defacement of the Parliament Street Police Station wall with graffiti during Lok Sabha Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi's protest on Friday, police sources said on Sunday.
An FIR was registered under the Delhi Prevention of Defacement of Property Act. The accused was identified and arrested with the help of CCTV footage.

Police sources said the individual was later granted bail as the offences mentioned in the FIR were bailable.
The graffiti was removed later by the police after Rahul Gandhi's protest seeking registration of an FIR over alleged police action against student protesters during a July 20 demonstration against NEET irregularities.
Meanwhile, Delhi Police on Friday registered an FIR in connection with the pellet gun injury case under Sections 118 and 125 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS). The case was registered following a sit-in protest by Congress leader Rahul Gandhi demanding an FIR over the complaint by alleged pellet gun shelling victim Sahil Lochab.
In a post on X, Rahul Gandhi said, "Sahil's FIR has finally been registered. But the way it happened, you must see this."
Lochab had alleged that he suffered injuries after pellet gun firing in the Connaught Place area on July 20 and that his complaint was not being registered. He claimed that he underwent surgery at AIIMS but continued to suffer from vision impairment.
Rahul Gandhi had earlier questioned the delay in registration of the FIR and cited an AIIMS report, saying it showed more than 200 pellet shells inside Lochab's body and three shells in his eye.
"A pellet gun was used at Connaught Place on 20th July. AIIMS report clearly says that there are more than 200 shells inside his body and 3 in his eye. He has lost vision in that eye. There are shells near his heart that cannot be touched. Delhi Police say they did not fire pellet guns. So, there is just one question: someone must have done it... A crime has indeed happened," Rahul Gandhi had said. (ANI)
