Nagpur: The female accused in derogatory post on social media secured bail on Tuesday. A day after police custody of the accused in the Kamptee incident ended, cops produced her before court where she was granted bail. However, the other two accused in the cases were sent to police custody for one day by the court.
Notably, the woman had posted a message allegedly defaming a religion on a WhatsApp group. The man had posted a message in support of her on another social media platform.
This was followed by several members of the minority community gathered outside the New Kamptee police station and demanded strict action against the duo.
Senior police officials rushed to the town and later pacified the angry mob. A Quick Response Team and riot control police were also deployed in the town to maintain law and order.
