A Mangaluru man posted an offensive post on Pahalgam terror attack and later took it down after a massive outrage online. The police have registered a case against him. A social media post by a Mangaluru man has sparked widespread outrage online after he compared the recent terrorist attack in J&K’s Pahalgam with the 2023 Palghar Railway Station shooting.
In the controversial post, the man, using the account name ‘Nichchu Mangaluru,’ claimed that the Pahalgam terror attack could have been avoided if Railway Protection Force (RPF) constable Chetan Singh had been hanged publicly last year. Singh had shot three individuals at Palghar Railway Station after allegedly asking if they were Muslims. The post further said that a public execution of Chetan Singh would have prevented such a terror attack, drawing direct parallels between the two killings.
The statement drew backlash online, and the post was later deleted. Konaje Police in Mangaluru have registered an FIR against the accused under charges of giving provocation with intent to cause riots and making statements conducive to public mischief. The authorities are currently searching for the person behind the post.
