The video of the rally titled ‘Save the Republic‘, went viral in which a child was seen sloganeering death threats to Hindus and Christians.
Police said that the arrest is on the case related to the child’s provocative sloganeering as he was one of the organizers of the event in Alappuzha. Regarding his comments against the judiciary, police said that it was for the High Court to take cognizance of the matter.
The Child’s father was arrested on Saturday from his residence at Palluruthy in Ernakulam district and he had told the police that the boy had learned the sloganeering on his own as he had attended several events of the organization. He also said that the boy had shouted such slogans earlier also and added that it was being made out into a major issue this time.
Ernakulam Assistant Commissioner of Police, V G Raveendranath told media persons that the child was subjected to two-hour counselling and would again undergo counselling sessions.

Anas, an active worker of the PFI in Erattupetta, Kottayam district who had carried the child on his shoulders while the boy was rendering the provocative slogan, was the first one to be arrested in the case. The Alappuzha district president of the PFI, Vandanam Navas, and district secretary of the organization, Mujeeb were also arrested.
