The Bengaluru city police on December 19 arrested seven people in connection with the desecration of a statue of Chhatrapati Shivaji at Bashyam Circle. The arrests were made after teams analysed CCTV footage and questioned some of the miscreants who had reportedly circulated video clips of the incident on social media.
“Investigations are ongoing,” said a police officer but did not divulge further details. On the morning of December 17, a group of people had gathered in front of the statue, shouting slogans against the MES. They threw ink on the statue and escaped.
