Throughout Saturday, the demolition continued with police teams present on-site. So far, 50 to 60 structures deemed “illegal” were demolished. Reports said that people fled the area fearing arrests.
Security remains heightened across Nuh after communal clashes erupted after violent attempts were made to stop a procession by a Hindu group called Vishva Hindu Parishad. The violence has also spread to Gurugram, near New Delhi.
While Anil Vij claimed a “big game plan” behind the violence, the Nuh Superintendent of Police, Narendra Singh Bijarnia, said in a press conference that the police have not found any indication of a mastermind behind the clashes.
The investigation, according to local Superintendent of Police, suggests the involvement of “disparate elements”, which the authorities are currently identifying and arresting.
