Man threatens JNU violence in Facebook video, arrested

Days after he was arrested for allegedly threatening and passing derogatory remarks against Congress leader Alka Lamba and Muslims on social media, police have again arrested 30-year-old Vikas Sehrawat alias Mallik Sehrawat — this time, for allegedly making an inflammatory speech in a video and threatening violence at Jawaharlal Nehru University on August 15.

The South district police had arrested Sehrawat on August 10 after Lamba filed an email complaint against him.

She also tagged Delhi Police in a post on Twitter while attaching the video in which Sehrawat is purportedly heard delivering a hate speech. He was later released on bail from Kotla Mubarakpur police station.
