8 MNS workers arrested for ‘vandalism’ at Amazon office in Pune

Eight members of the Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) have been arrested by Pune City Police in connection with a case of vandalism at the Amazon office premises at Kondhwa Budruk, in which the company board was blackened.

Amazon has recently moved court against MNS and its affiliate, which have allegedly threatened to block the company’s operations in Mumbai if it does not include Marathi as one of the preferred languages on its mobile application and website. A court in Mumbai had subsequently issued notice to MNS chief Raj Thackeray, asking him to appear before it on January 5.
