Meanwhile, United Against Hate said in a statement on the arrest of Omar Khalid – “After eleven hours of inquiry, Special Cell of Delhi Police has arrested Omar Khalid as a conspirator in the Delhi riot case.” The Delhi Police is dragging the protests into a crime category under the guise of investigating the riots.
