PATIALA: Shiromani Akali Dal (
SAD) president
Sukhbir Singh Badal on Sunday demanded immediate arrest of former DGP Mohammad
Mustafa
for “trying to incite communal clashes in
Malerkotla
with his incendiary statements”.
After addressing a gathering at Malerkotla in favour of party candidate Nusrat Iqram Khan, the SAD president urged the Election Commission to take note of the development and order Mustafa’s arrest.
“This is needed to restore the confidence of the people in the democratic set up which has been vitiated by the former police officer, who is the husband of Malerkotla MLA and Congress minister Razia Sultana,” said Sukhbir, while adding that this was not the first time Mohammad Mustafa had vitiated the atmosphere in Malerkotla. “He is known to have registered hundreds of false cases against Akali workers. He has also oppressed the poor and downtrodden and created a fear psychosis. Mustafa will be proceeded against as per the law and will be held accountable for his misdeeds once the next SAD-BSP government is formed in the dstate” said Sukhbir, who was accompanied by party district president Iqbal Singh Jhundan and another functionary Mohammad Owaisi.
