Mangaluru, Jan 10: The Dakshina Kannada police arrested two of the four activists of saffron groups who entered the house of a Hindu woman on Tuesday and threatened her daughter against speaking to Muslims.

According to Superintendent of Police Sudheer Kumar Reddy C.H., the four not only warned the girl against speaking to Muslims but also pushed her to the side.

They quarrelled with the family and asked them to leave the village if they did not stop meeting “those people”.

On a complaint to Bantwal Rural police, the police arrested Umesh, 33, an autorickshaw driver, and Ramesh, 48, who runs a small hotel.

The police are on the look-out for Umesh’s brother Rajesh and a few others involved in the incident.

Who is that poor girl, Muktar wife or subramanya swami's daughter or Sharukh khan wife or Kareena kapoor. Don't blame your mistakes for muslim or Islam. People are intelligent today so leave the decisions for them. Don't try to bring religion on every single matter. Auto rickshaw driver, busconductor, petty labour what he knows about family. love.religion....They have guts to question saffron leaders .

No need to mention saffrons. It already understood. Trouble makers are always saffrons

Why no case against those who are converting poor hindu girls into Islam.. Police taking double standard
