The 2 accused were arrested by the police. The case is being investigated by Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS) and National Investigation Agency (NIA).
Background
On January 6, 2022, Kishan had posted a video on social media in which the Hindu deity Krishna was depicted as 'Superior' to Islamic Prophet Muhammad and Jesus. Shortly after this social media post, there was outrage by some members of Muslim community & a FIR was filed on him under the incitement/blasphemy Law 8 days before the murder. He was made to apologize, after which he was released by the police.
Murder
At 5:30 on 25 January, as Kishan had moved outside his house for the first time since his release from police custody, he was shot by 2 bike-borne assailants. Kishan died on the spot. Leaders from Antarashtriya Hindu Parishad and Bajrang Dal organized Bandh as a form of protest saying that the Hindu Youth was Martyred.
Reactions
State Home Minister Harsh Sanghvi tweeted, “The case of the violent incident of Dhanduka has been handed over to ATS. Gujarat Police is committed to provide justice to the victim's family”.
