They were not part of mob, say kin of suspects held for Old Delhi tension

Hindustan Times  

In the early hours of Tuesday, there were constant knocks on the doors of Mohammad Zubair’s house. But his family did not open the door fearing that a mob may have come to avenge the damage done to a temple in the neighbouring locality of Lal Kuan in Old Delhi on Sunday night, said his younger brother Mohammad Sharique. Zubair, who works in a factory that manufactures plumbing accessories, is among nine people nabbed till Wednesday night in connection with a case of alleged rioting and vandalism of a temple on the night of June 30 that led to communal tension in the Walled City’s Lal Kuan area and adjacent localities. A fight involving a Hindu and a Muslim man over parking a scooter had snowballed into communal tension in Old Delhi’s Lal Kuan on Sunday night. The boy’s relatives said that many in their family amd neighbourhood received a text message that was circulated in a WhatsApp group on Sunday night.
