Bhima-Koregaon violence : Arrested human rights activists had links with Kashmiri separatists, says Pune Police

A day after five human rights activists were arrested in connection with the Bhima-Koregaon violence case, the Pune police on Wednesday said they had links with Kashmiri separatists. The police said some of the evidence collected in the case suggests that there was a plan to target highest political functionaries and that those arrested have shown a strong intolerance to the political system.

Meanwhile, In a huge relief to the activists, the Supreme Court on Wednesday said that they should be kept under house arrest until the next date of hearing on September 6.
