The Maharashtra Police on Tuesday told the Bombay High Court that it has registered a case against BJP members Nitish Rane and Geeta Jain. Police said they found during investigation that both of them had made objectionable speeches during the communal violence in Thane district in January.
A division bench of Chief Justices Mohit Dera and Manjusha Deshpande last week asked the respective police chiefs to personally verify whether the two leaders had made objectionable and inflammatory speeches.
Public prosecutor Hiten Venegaonkar today told the court that a preliminary investigation revealed that the speeches made by Ran and Jain during the communal violence in Meera Bhainder (in Thane district) in January this year were derogatory. Vangaonkar said Ran is accused of making hate speeches at rallies in Mumbai’s Malwani, Mankhord and Ghatkopar areas. He told that Jain is accused of hate speech in a rally in Meera Bhainder.
