Two more arrested in Alpha attack case

The role of police came under a cloud over the incident following saffron leader Niraj Jain8217;s claim that the police had accompanied his men; the police, however, denied the charge.

But a few missionaries, including Mother Grace Cherian and her brother T George alleged that they had been slapped by VHP-Dal men even in the police van and made to wait in the Fatehgunj police outpost till morning while none of the accused persons were detained or questioned.

The police initiated action only after wide coverage of the incident in the local as well as national media and several organisations, including the National Commission for Minorities, asked the government to identify the guilty and punish them.
