Mumbai: Navi Mumbai police have registered an FIR against a man for allegedly using Mughal emperor Aurangzeb’s image as his Whatsapp profile picture after the issue was raised by a Hindu organisation, an official said on Sunday.
The man who works in an outlet of a mobile service provider was arrested in Vashi. He was allowed to go and a notice was issued to him.
The screenshot of Aurangzeb’s profile picture was submitted to the police by a Hindu organisation, leading to registration of the case under sections 298 (Uttering words, etc, with deliberate intent to wound religious feelings) and 153-A (Promoting enmity between different groups on grounds of religion, race, place of birth, residence) of the Indian Penal Code, the official said, according to PTI.
Further investigation is underway, he added.
