"The UP Chief Minister has become the Chief Justice of Allahabad High Court. He'll convict anyone & demolish their houses?," Mr Owaisi asked while addressing a rally.
AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi on Sunday hit out at Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath over demolition of the house of the main accused in Prayagraj violence, asserting that he was behaving like the Chief Justice of the Allahabad High Court.
"The UP Chief Minister has become the Chief Justice of Allahabad High Court. He'll convict anyone & demolish their houses?," Mr Owaisi asked while addressing a rally in Gujarat's Kutch.
The Prayagraj Development Authority (PDA) on Sunday demolished the house of Javed Mohammed, alias Pump, the alleged mastermind of the June 10 violence in Prayagraj, amid heavy police deployment.
The accused is a leader of the Welfare Party of India and the father of activist Afreen Fatima. Ms Fatima was part of the protests against the centre's controversial Citizenship Law last year. The police have said her role in this week's violence is being probed as well.
