New Delhi: The violence that erupted on Sunday near Jamia Nagar area during protests by students was pre-planned and involved outsiders said the Delhi Police on Tuesday.
Additional DCP Kumar Gyanesh said, ” I witnessed it for myself, some protesters were carrying wet blankets and putting them on tear gas shells to minimize their impact. It did not seem to be spontaneous but well planned.”
“Petrol bombs were also hurled at us by the protesters. These things do not happen on the spot, it shows that it was a conspiracy. The kind of stone-pelting and reaction appears to us as if it was pre-planned,” Gyanesh said.
Earlier today Delhi police said that 10 persons with criminal records were arrested for their involvement in the Sunday’s violence.
