HOW MONU MANESAR WAS ARRESTED
Constable Mohit said that Monu Manesar’s name had cropped up during monitoring of social media activities by Nuh Cyber Crime Police. During routine online monitoring, the authorities had stumbled upon a page managed by Monu Mansar. On this page, a post dated August 26 had been shared, prompting concerns about possible incitement of hatred and disorder among various communities.
Upon further investigation, it was revealed that the Facebook account associated with the said page was linked to a mobile number registered under the name of Mohit alias Monu Mansar.
Based on this evidence, Monu Mansar was apprehended, and a search of his person led to the discovery of a .45 caliber pistol and three live cartridges concealed in his pants.
Following his arrest by the Haryana Police, an appeal for 14-day judicial custody was filed at the Nuh Court. Subsequently, the Nuh Court granted the request, sending Monu Mansar to judicial custody for 14 days.
The Rajasthan Police then sought the custody of arrested cow vigilante. The Nuh court then gave the transit remand of Monu Manesar to Rajasthan Police.
