Pahalgam Attack | Assam MLA Arrested For Pulwama, Pahalgam "Government Conspiracy" Comment

An MLA in Assam has been arrested over his comments on the terror attacks in Jammu and Kashmir's Pahalgam and Pulwama. Aminul Islam, an MLA of the opposition party All India United Democratic Front (AIUDF), yesterday claimed the suicide bombing of a convoy of the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) in Pulwama in February 2019, and the killing of 26 tourists in Pahalgam were "conspiracies by the government". The Assam Police filed a case on their own (suo motu) against Mr Islam after a video of his comment went viral on social media. "On the basis of a misleading and instigating statement by Dhing MLA, Sh Aminul Islam in public, which went viral and had potential to create an adverse situation, NagaonPS Case 347/25 was registered for offences u/s 152/196/197(1)/113(3)/352/353 BNS. He has been arrested accordingly," the Assam Police said in a post on X.
