Bangalore: Karnataka Police on Tuesday arrested the State convener of the Sri Ram Sena, Prasad Attavar for his role in the attack on women at a pub in Mangalore.
In an exclusive chat with Times Now, Attavar apologised for the 'manner' in which his party workers handled the 'moral' issue.
He maintained that the act was done to protect the cultural integrity of the nation.
The Police also arrested Pramod Muthalik, the president of the Karnataka unit. Public anger prompted the law enforcement authorities to arrest Attavar.
The National Commission for Women (NCW) has constituted a three-member team to investigate the attack. The NCW has also asked the director general of police (DGP), Karnataka, to send an action taken report to the commission in the matter.
NCW chairperson Girija Vyas said the commission would decide on the future of course of action after Karnataka Police sends its report."This is a horrific crime and strict punishment should be meted out to the culprits," Vyas said. Twenty seven people have been arrested so far.Karnataka Chief Minister B. S. Yeddyurappa on Tuesday said the police is gathering evidence on top functionaries.
“The government will not tolerate people taking law into their hands and indulging in criminal activities. Police is gathering evidence on the top functionaries for the arrest,” he said.Yeddyurappa also ruled out any link between the Ram Sena and the Bhartiya Janata Party (BJP).“I am telling this honestly, the party has nothing to do with the Sena, who have brought disgrace to the state,” he added.
