Muzaffarnagar: Aabad Shah, a young man from Kamalpur village, was arrested after his controversial WhatsApp status demanding the arrest of Sambhal Circle Officer (CO) Anuj Chaudhary went viral.
Aabad had posted an image of CO Chaudhary with the caption: “Bakra Eid comes only once a year. If someone feels that seeing meat and blood corrupts their faith, they should stay indoors.” He also used the hashtag #ArrestAnujChaudhary, triggering outrage.
Police swiftly detained Aabad and later released a video of him apologizing from custody. In the video, he states: “I apologize for my comment on the Circle Officer. This mistake will not happen again. I respect the police department. Please forgive me.”
UP के मुजफ्फरनगर के आबाद ने CO अनुज चौधरी पर कमेंट करते हुए लिखा था– "बकरा ईद साल में 1 बार ही आती है। जिसे लगता है मांस और खून देखने से धर्म भ्रष्ट होता है, वो घरों से बाहर न निकले"

The controversy erupted after CO Anuj Chaudhary made a statement about the Holi vs. Jumma Namaz debate, saying, “Jumma comes 52 times a year, but Holi comes only once. If Muslims feel their faith is affected by Holi colors, they should stay indoors.”
