Speaking to바카라 웹사이트바카라,바카라 웹사이트Rao라이브 바카라 daughter Pavana says that the agency, in its notice said that both of them have been called for a witness statement.

In바카라 웹사이트August 2018, the Pune police had conducted raids at the residences of Rao and his daughters during the poet라이브 바카라 arrest. The police also took away laptops, hard discs, and pen drives among other things, says Pavana.

Maharashtra police has arrested 14 rights activists including Rao in connection with the Bhima-Koregaon violence, which broke out in 2018. The police say that the alleged speeches made at the Elgar Parishad conclave held in Pune on바카라 웹사이트December 31, 2017, led to the violence near the Koregaon-Bhima war memorial. The police, in its charge sheet also claimed that the activists also plotted to kill Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
“The government put the바카라 웹사이트activists in jail claiming that they hatched a conspiracy.바카라 웹사이트 But the actual conspiracy is done by the state.

Gorke and Gaichor, members of the ‘Kabir Kala Manch’, were arrested on바카라 웹사이트Monday바카라 웹사이트in connection with the Elgar Parishad case.
“Gorke and Gaichor put out a video message saying that NIA was forcing them to give statements implicating those arrested in the case. They were not ready to give and that라이브 바카라 why they got arrested,” says Pavana.
In July, the NIA had arrested Delhi University associate professor Hany Babu. Over the past few months, the agency has also questioned several academics, lawyers, and activists in connection with the case.
Even after two years, the arrested activists are yet to get bail and justice is being denied to them, says Pavana.
The family is also alarmed about the health condition of the poet, who was shifted back to jail last month after treatment at Mumbai라이브 바카라 Nanavati hospital. Rao was tested positive for Corona in July and his poor health condition has sparked widespread protests from many quarters. His family and activists alleged that jail authorities failed to provide adequate medical facilities to the poet. Later, the National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) also intervened and issued notices to the state government. The family says that they are yet to hear from him or the authorities.
“My father was shifted on바카라 웹사이트August 27바카라 웹사이트to jail. Till now, we haven’t got any health updates either from Nanavati or from the jail. Court also is postponing its hearings," adds Pavana.
