Rakesh not arrested, if Asad, he would have been held: Owaisi on CJI shoe attack

Hyderabad: AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi has criticised the handling of the recent attack on Chief Justice of India (CJI) Gavai. NDTV reported Owaisi as saying, "Attacker's name Rakesh hence no arrest, if attacker was Asad, he would have been held."

His comments came amid widespread national outrage after a lawyer attempted to hurl a shoe at CJI Gavai during court proceedings, an attack that was swiftly prevented by security personnel.
