An FIR has been lodged against seven people, including principal, sub inspectors and five others in connection with alleged thrashing of a student for wearing a skull cap on the premises of a college in Karnataka, police said on Sunday.<\/p>\n
The case has been filed as per the directions of the local Banahatti JMFC court by Teradala police station in Bagalkot district of the state.<\/p>\n
Naveed Hasan Saab Tharathari, a college student, had submitted a petition in the court in this regard.<\/p>\n
In his petition, Naveed had said that on February 18, when he came to the Government First Grade College of Teradal wearing a skull cap, he was insulted and prevented from entering the institution, “belittling” his religious sentiments.<\/p>\n
He had prayed before the court to lodge complaint against the Principal and police sub-inspector who boycotted him from the college, “insulting” his religion.<\/p>\n
Considering the petition, the court had ordered the police to lodge an FIR against the accused.<\/p>\n
The court will take up the case for hearing on June 30. Jamakhandi Deputy SP has been made investigator of the case.<\/p>\n
Earlier, Principal A.S. Pujara had lodged a police complaint against Naveed and his father accusing them of assaulting him and obstructing him from discharging his duty.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
