Three days after a video clip emerged of a boy chanting 'provocative' slogans at a Popular Front of India (PFI) rally held in Alappuzha on May 21, the police are groping in the dark to find clues that will help them identify the child and his parents.
Alappuzha Deputy Superintendent of Police N.R. Jayaraj said they were yet to get concrete clues about the minor in the video. “We got some leads and are working on them. Efforts are also on to identify others in the video,” Mr. Jayaraj said.
After the video featuring the boy sitting on the shoulder of a man and chanting hate and incendiary slogans apparently against other religions went viral, the police arrested PFI Alappuzha district president Navas Vandanam and Ansar Najeeb, a PFI activist from Erattupetta in Kottayam.
