Mumbai: Maharashtra Minister Anil Deshmukh on Wednesday said none of the 101 people arrested in connection with the Palghar lynching case is a Muslim, and accused the opposition of giving a communal colour over the incident.
“None of the accused arrested in connection with the incident is a Muslim. It is unfortunate that communal politics is being played following the incident,” Deshmukh said in his address via Facebook.
Without naming anyone, he said, “Some people are seeing ‘Mungerilal ke haseen sapne‘ (pipedream)… it is not the time to play politics, but fight coronavirus collectively.”
The incident took place on the night of April 16 when three men – two seers and their driver – were going from Mumbai in a car towards Surat in Gujarat to attend a funeral.
