Hyderabad: A law student from Hyderabad was taken into custody by the police on Sunday following his Facebook post against Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The 21-year-old law student, Arif Muhammed, was interrogated for 17 hours after the arrest.

The fourth-year law student, who resided at Banjara Hills, was picked up by mufti policemen while he was attending a function at Gudimalkapur in Mehdipatnam.

Arif shared an article by popular online figure Ram Subramaniam’s Facebook declaring a Rs1 lakh reward for anyone who would throw a shoe at the Prime Minister.

The post was in response to the bounty offered by BJP leaders and other groups, some even declared to behead actress Deepika Padukone and director Sanjay Leela Bhansali for making a movie which ‘distorted’ the history of Padmavati.
