Haridwar Superintendent of Police (SP) City Shekhar Suyal on December 25 said that two more persons have been named in the FIR in connection with the alleged hate speech in the 'Dharma Sansad' in Haridwar.

The police have named Dharm Das and Annapurna, a woman in the hate speech case. Earlier on Wednesday, police said it had booked Wasim Rizvi aka Jitendra Tyagi, and others under Section 153A Indian Penal Code in the case.

Meanwhile, Anand Swaroop, an attendee of 'Dharam Sansad' endorsed the statement and told media persons, “We stand by our statements that are well thought out. If a person rapes our sister, won't we kill him? Speakers talked about killing such persons, not ordinary Muslims who are our friends. No one can stop India from becoming Hindu Rashtra.”
