Hardwar Police in a late night operation, detained 7 personal bodyguards of Baba Ramdev’s brother Rambharat.
Rambharat’s detention comes in connection with the clash at Patanjali Herbal Food Park and subsequent death of a truck union leader.
A fresh raid was also conducted at Ramdev’s food park were police recovered one sword, helmets and fifteen spears.
A press note by Patanjali Yogpeeth read, “We express pain over the death of a person, as we are against violence. Rambharat is innocent and the arrest is politically motivated–done by the police on instructions of the state government.” The food park remained closed on Friday too.
In connection with the food park clash, the All India Sikh Conference (Babbar) has now demanded the arrest of Ramdev and his aide Acharya Balkrishna.
Babbar said, “It (clash) was a well-planned conspiracy and goons were invited from Haryana.
The bodyguards were later produced at a local court on Friday and were sent to 14-day judicial custody.
An FIR should be lodged against Baba Ramdev and Acharya Balkrishna, the owner of the company.
