Trinamool’s Mahua Moitra condemned the repeated arrests of party colleague Saket Gokhale<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

New Delhi: <\/b><\/p>\n

Trinamool Congress MP Mahua Moitra has condemned the arrest of party colleague Saket Gokhale for a third time in less than two weeks, calling it “harassment”.<\/p>\n

Without naming the ruling BJP, Ms Moitra tweeted that “people can see through” the repeated arrests.<\/p>\n

The police in Gujarat, the home state of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and a state ruled by the BJP, arrested Mr Gokhale yesterday evening for allegedly misusing funds that the Trinamool Congress spokesperson had raised via crowdfunding.<\/p>\n

“Within a span of just 15 days, TMC [Trinamool Congress] national spokesperson Saket Gokhale has been arrested thrice. Harassment of this kind never pays in long run. People can see through this and opposition emerges stronger,” Ms Moitra tweeted.<\/p>\n

Thursday’s arrest was the third time Mr Gokhale was arrested by the Gujarat Police.<\/p>\n

Mr Gokhale was first arrested on December 6 for allegedly sharing fake news linked to Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s visit to Gujarat’s Morbi after an old suspension bridge collapsed there, killing 135 people.<\/p>\n

Many has pointed out that the information shared by Mr Gokhale on the cost of PM Modi’s visit to Morbi was highly exaggerated.<\/p>\n

Mr Gokhale was later released on bail, but was taken into custody by the police in Morbi in the same case but one that was filed in this Gujarat town.<\/p>\n

The Trinamool leader came out on bail the next day.<\/p>\n

Mr Gokhale tweeted the National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) has filed a case against the Gujarat Police for arresting him without allegedly following due procedure.<\/p>\n

“Glad to announce that National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) has registered a case against Gujarat Police regarding my arrest 3 weeks ago. The case is for taking me into illegal custody without a transit remand (and without informing local police) from Jaipur to Ahmedabad,” Mr Gokhale tweeted on Thursday.<\/p>\n

“Flouting the law and taking people into illegal custody Gestapo-style in the middle of the night to transport them across state lines has become a hallmark of the BJP. Like I’d said – I’ll fight. And fight stronger than ever,” the Trinamool spokesperson tweeted.<\/p>\n
