BAREILLY: Two Muslim boys were booked for “breach of peace” after attending their Hindu friend’s birthday party at a cafe in UP’s Bareilly. The action was taken after the members of the Bajrang Dal barged into the cafe alleging love jihad. The police, however, subsequently refuted the love jihad angle. Police said the nursing student had invited her classmates, six girls and four boys, for a small celebration. Minutes into the gathering, Bajrang Dal members barged in, accused the Muslim guests of “love jihad” and allegedly thrashed one of them and the girl who tried to intervene. A few videos from the spot shows police restraining the girl as she resists being taken away.Though the police inquiry found no wrongdoing by the students, two Muslim boys and a café staffer were booked under breach of peace for disturbing public order. The right-wing group members who disrupted the event were advised to disperse.
