Death toll at 9, journalists attacked.
| | | | | | | Delhi continued to burn on Tuesday with the death toll in the communal violence rising to 9. Journalists who were in north east Delhi were brutally attacked for covering the riots. NDTV’s Arvind Gunasekar and Saurabh Shukla, who had to be admitted to hospital for their injuries, were beaten up reportedly because they tried to take videos of a mob burning down a mosque. A journalist from JK24, identified as Akash, received a bullet injury. Reports say that a mosque was also set on fire in Ashok Vihar.
As Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal appealed for peace, the Delhi police have told the Ministry of Home Affairs that they don’t have enough forces to take control of the situation.
The violent mobs went on a rampage burning shops and vehicles in north east Delhi’s Bhajanpura, Chandbagh, Yamuna Vihar, Maupur and Ashok Vihar. |
