An Indian-origin man who teaches in a UK university has been charged with allegedly inciting people in ethnic violence-hit Manipur with his online messages and talk sessions on a social media platform, according to a police complaint filed in the state capital Imphal. The police complaint alleged the accused may be linked with Khalistani elements in Canada.
The first information report (FIR) filed by a local resident alleged that the accused, identified as Uday Reddy, a Computer Science professor in the University of Birmingham, has been working online to create tension between communities on religious grounds in Manipur.
"The accused person deliberately with malicious intention insulted the Meitei's religious beliefs and promoted enmity between the Meiteis and other communities on religious ground," the complainant said in the FIR filed with a police station in Imphal East district.
