Earlier, A doctor 'Arvind Vatsa Akela' from Ghaziabad had also claimed that he got (Sar Tan se Juda) beheading threats on his WhatsApp for supporting Hindu outfits. Police later clarified that he'd himself messaged to his mobile to gain popularity.
Reporting such incident is fine, it should be, but should the Prime Time Anchors & TV channels sensationalize such complaints by having prime time debates even before Police investigation is completed?
Now that the accused is arrested and is known to the person who received threats, Will the channel report, will they do prime time debates, Will it report on such growing trends? Can't expect RW Influencers to tweet the Police statement but will the Channels do it?
The accused 'Pranpriya Vats' who gave beheading threats to 'Journalist' Nishant (associated with RSS mouthpiece @eOrganiser) to stop writing against Islam is arrested.
As per DSP Abhay Mishra, The accused Pranpriya Vats is known to Nishant.
