Maharashtra: Three arrested for trespassing on CM Uddhav Thackeray’s farmhouse in Raigad

Mumbai/UNI: Police on Wednesday arrested three people reportedly associated with a private TV news channel Republic for allegedly trespassing on Maharashtra Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray’s farmhouse at Karjat in neighbouring Raigad district.

Though an official statement issued by Raigad Police did not make any mention of their profession, the network said its reporter Anuj Kumar, video journalist Yashpaljit Singh and an aggregator cab driver Pradeep Dilip Dhanavade were taken into "illegal police custody".

The channel has allegedly been running a campaign against the ruling dispensation in the state.

According to police, a security guard who was on night duty at Uddhav Thackeray's farmhouse was on his way to report for duty, when three people in a car approached him and asked the address of farmhouse.

However, the security guard, who is also the complainant, told them he did not know and moved on. After some time, three people suddenly entered the guardroom and started abusing him. They called out his lie from earlier and allegedly manhandled him.

Based on security guard’s statement, police have filed a complaint under sections 452, 448, 323, 504, 506 and 34 of Indian Penal Code.

This comes days after an unidentified man allegedly phoned Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray’s personal residence 'Matoshree' in suburban Bandra, saying he was calling from Dubai on behalf of fugitive underworld don Dawood Ibrahim.
