Cong. workers held for damaging Mahatma’s picture in Rahul Gandhi’s office

Four persons were arrested on Friday on the charge of damaging a picture of Mahatma Gandhi in the office of Congress MP Rahul Gandhi here during an attack allegedly by a group of Student Federation of India (SFI) activists nearly two months ago.

Those arrested were identified as K.R. Ratheesh Kumar, personal assistant of Mr. Gandhi, S.R. Rahul, an office staff, V .Noushad and K. Mujeeb, Congress workers.

The office was vandalised allegedly by a group of SFI activists following a march on June 24. The Communist Party of India (Marxist) had alleged that the students were not responsible for destroying the picture as it was intact immediately after the attack.
