Digital Desk: After four arrests yesterday, Delhi Police has now detained two more members of the Popular Front of India (PFI) under the stringent Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act for their alleged suspicious activities.
As per Delhi Police, "Two people have been arrested for planning and conspiring against the government. An FIR has been registered against PFI members under sections of UAPA at Khajuri Khas Police Station."
Earlier, an FIR was filed at the Shaheen Bagh police station, where four PFI members were arrested. A few days ago, police launched a case against PFI under UAPA at Shaheen Bagh police station, following which action was taken on PFI's properties under Section-8 of UAPA.
A senior police officer said an FIR has been registered against two PFI activists under IPC sections 120 B (criminal conspiracy) and 153 A (promoting enmity between different groups), along with section 10/13 of the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act at Khajuri Khas police station, for allegedly planning and conspiring against the government and the country.
This is the second case filed under the UAPA in the national capital against PFI members. Following that, Delhi Police raided PFI units in six districts of the city, detaining 33 people suspected of being associated with the group.
On September 28, the Government of India invoked the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act and imposed an immediate five-year ban on PFI and any of its affiliates, partners, or fronts as an unlawful association.
The organizations which were also declared banned under the stringent anti-terror law UAPA include Rehab India Foundation (RIF), Campus Front of India (CF), All India Imams Council (AIIC), National Confederation of Human Rights Organisation (NCHRO), National Women's Front, Junior Front, Empower India Foundation and Rehab Foundation, Kerala.
After the ban, Twitter also ‘withheld’ the official PFI account. Twitter message on the PFI account shows, "@PFIOfficial's has been withheld in India in response to a legal demand." The Union government had ordered the blocking of all the social media handles of PFI including its Twitter, YouTube channels, Instagram, and Facebook accounts.
