JAIPUR/NEW DELHI: Investigators on Wednesday were looking into a possible link between one of the men who killed an Udaipur tailor and an Islamist outfit in Pakistan, as Rajasthan Police remained on vigil a day after the hate crime now being probed by the National Investigation Agency.
A policeman was slashed with a sword during a protest march in Rajsamand district’s Bhim town, where police used tear gas to stop a stone-pelting mob from advancing towards a mosque.
In Udaipur, hundreds took part in a funeral procession for Kanhaiya Lal — the tailor who was attacked on Tuesday afternoon by two men who posted a video of the brutal attack with a cleaver on social media and claimed that they had avenged an insult to Islam.
Stones were hurled at a burial ground and some people tried to vandalise its gate as the procession passed by. Elsewhere in Rajasthan, markets were closed in Sojat (Pali), Bhinmal and Sanchore (Jalore) and Reodar (Sikar) in protest over the Udaipur murder.
Apart from the arrests of Riaz Akhtari, the man who hacked at the tailor’s neck, and Ghouse Mohammad, who filmed the crime, police have detained three others allegedly involved in the attack.
Rajasthan Director General of Police (DGP) M L Lather said Ghouse has links with Karachi-based Dawate-Islami and had visited the Pakistani city in 2014.
