Seven held in Ayodhya for throwing objectionable items at mosques

Seven people were arrested after they allegedly threw pieces of pork, letters abusing Muslims, and torn pages of an Islamic text at some mosques here in an attempt to instigate communal violence, police said on Thursday.

The arrested belong to an outfit called the 'Hindu Yodha Sangathan', and the leader of the group is a history-sheeter with four criminal cases registered against him, they said.

The police said they have registered four FIRs in connection with the incidents that took place at the Taatshah Jama Masjid, Ghosiyana mosque, a mosque at the Kashmiri Mohalla, and a mazar known as Gulab Shah Baba.
