Hanuman Chalisa row | Mumbai police add IPC section 353 in FIR against Ranas; case also registered against Shiv Sena workers

The Mumbai police have added the charge of “use of criminal force to deter a public servant from discharge of duty” in the FIR registered against Independent MP Navneet Rana and her husband MLA Ravi Rana, an official said on April 24.

The city police have also registered an FIR against several Shiv Sena workers for protesting outside the residence of the Ranas in Mumbai on April 23, he said.

The police had on Saturday evening arrested the Ranas for allegedly “creating enmity between different groups”, after the couple cancelled their plan to recite the Hanuman Chalisa outside Maharashtra Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray’s private residence `Matoshree’ in Mumbai.
