Mangaluru: Addressing the press, Mangaluru city police commissioner M Chandrasekhar said that Qureshi will be treated just like any other accused, here on 16th April, responding to the allegedly spreading rumors about Ahmed Qureshi's health.
“As per the court order, Qureshi was admitted to the KMC hospital. Now he has been re-admitted to the Wenlock Hospital and according to the hospital authorities, he is recovering”, he said and also requested the people not to give credence to false information being spread by unscrupulous people by making use of WhatsApp and social websites.
The alleged physical torture on Qureshi by CCB police has triggered widespread uproar with his family members holding the cops responsible for the severe damage to his kidneys and injuries across his body.
The commissioner further added, “Some individuals and organizations backed by vested interests, have been engaged in spreading false information about the health condition of Ahmed Qureshi. They have been falsely claiming that Qureshi's condition is serious and a case has already been registered for spreading false rumors. We will continue to monitor social media and take action against those who try to create tension in the society”.
Kadri police, who have registered the complaint, are investigating.
