Coimbatore police inform Union Home Ministry of UAPA case filed against six persons

The Coimbatore city police have sent a report to the Union Ministry of Home Affairs about a case registered this year under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA) in connection with an alleged plot by a six-member group to murder a man who opposed religious conversion of his son who married a Muslim woman last year.

Police sources said the report was sent as a “routine procedure”, which is followed in all UAPA cases, for the Home Ministry to check whether it needs to be probed by the National Investigation Agency.

The police arrested five men in March this year on information that they were plotting to murder Kumaresan, a resident of Selvapuram in Coimbatore.
