Delhi: Police register case after AIMIM chief Owaisi files complaint about vandalism at his residence

New Delhi [India], June 30 : Delhi Police have registered a case against a group of people after AIMIM chief and Hyderabad MP Asaduddin Owaisi filed a complaint about vandalism at his residence in the national capital.
The case was registered after a group of miscreants smeared black ink on the nameplate and posted pro-Israel posters outside Owaisi's house at 34 Ashoka Road.
The AIMIM chief took to social media to condemn the incident, sharing visuals of the vandalism and challenging the perpetrators to confront him directly.
"Some 'unknown miscreants' vandalised my house with black ink today. I have now lost count of the number of times my Delhi residence has been targeted. When I asked Delhi Police officials how this was happening right under their noses, they expressed helplessness," posted Owaisi.
Tagging Union Home Minister Amit Shah, Owaisi wrote in the post, "This is happening under your oversight. Please tell us if MPs' safety will be guaranteed or not. To the two-bit goons who keep targeting my house: this does not scare me. Stop this Savarkar-type cowardly behaviour and be men enough to face me. Do not scurry away after throwing some ink or pelting a few stones."
Meanwhile, the accused in the Owaisi residence vandalism said that their sentiments were hurt after Owaisi's controversial comments supporting a conflict-hit West Asian country.
Speaking to ANI, Vijay, an accused in the case said, "Owaisi, who was elected as a parliamentarian and as a servant for the society, raised the Jai Palestine slogan. I want to say that you are living in India and instead of saying Jai Bharat you are raising Jai Palestine slogans.
"We did not behave inappropriately, the way the Delhi police has taken action against us. I want to say that we are not fugitives and we are citizens of this country and we will not run away from this."
Another accused in the same incident said, "I am just 19 years old but please understand that if a 19-year-old student goes to hold a peaceful protest outside Owaisi's residence, it is because our sentiments as citizens of the country were hurt. AIMIM Owaisi who cannot say 'Jai Bharat' raised pro-Palestine slogans that have deeply wounded our sentiments."
'We are being accused unnecessarily of stone pelting, we have only stuck posters saying Jai Bharat, is that wrong? Also if Owasi has claimed of us smearing ink and a window being broke through stone pelting, he stated that he has 20 cameras, l would want him to come out with the footage of the same," he said.
Earlier in the day, members of Vishva Hindu Parishad and Bajrang Dal held a protest against AIMIM MP Asaduddin Owaisi over his 'Jai Palestine' slogan during the oath-taking ceremony in Parliament.
The protesters were seen holding placards and posters that read, "The MP who insults the dignity of Parliament is not needed."AIMIM Chief Asaduddin Owaisi on Tuesday concluded his oath-taking as a member of the Lok Sabha with the words "Jai Palestine".
While being sworn in as an MP in the 18th Session of the Lok Sabha, Owaisi ended his oath with the words, "Jai Bhim, Jai Meem, Jai Telangana, Jai Palestine."
Taking to his official X handle, Owaisi posted, "Sworn in as a member of Lok Sabha for the fifth time. Inshallah, I will continue to raise issues of India's marginalised with sincerity."
Speaking with ANI, Owaisi said, "Everyone is saying a lot of things... I just said "Jai Bhim, Jai Meem, Jai Telangana, Jai Palestine"...How it is against, show the provision in the Constitution?"
On being asked the reason for saying 'Jai Palestine', Owaisi said, "Waha ki awaam mahroom hai (The people there are destitute). Mahatma Gandhi has said so many things regarding Palestine and one can go and read."
After Owaisi took oath as a member of the Lok Sabha with the words "Jai Palestine", Union Ministers G Kishan Reddy and Kiren Rijiju criticised Owaisi and condemned his statement.
