Mumbai police on May 4 detained a number of Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) workers gathered outside party chief Raj Thackeray's residence in Mumbai, a day after the latter urged people to play Hanuman Chalisa on loudspeakers wherever they hear loudspeakers blaring 'azaan', officials said.
However, MNS functionaries Sandeep Deshpande and Santosh Dhuri managed to quickly leave the spot in a vehicle when a police team tried to catch them.
A female police constable fell down while taking action against MNS workers outside Thackeray's home in the Shivaji Park area.
