A sedition case has been filed against a woman in Bengaluru after she raised pro-Pakistan slogans at a protest against Citizenship(Amendment) Act or CAA. Hyderabad MP Asaduddin Owaisi, who was present at the event, distanced himself and his party - All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen(AIMIM) - from the sloganeering, saying, "We, in no way, support our enemy nation Pakistan."

The young woman, identified as Amulya, is seen in a video shouting "Pakistan Zindabad (Long live Pakistan)" at the event organised under the banner of "Save Constitution". Asaduddin Owaisi and two other men, apparently the organisers, rush to stop her from chanting the slogan; they try to take away the microphone from her.

"Kya bol rahein hain aap (What are you saying)?"the AIMIM chief tells Amulya as she persists. "The difference between Hindustan Zindabad (Long Live India) and Pakistan Zindabad (Long Live Pakistan)is..," the woman, in her mid-twenties, is heard saying but several men stop her midway.

Amulya was arrested last evening soon after the event; a sedition case has been filed against her. "We have filed a suo moto case against her under sections 124A(sedition), 153A and B (promoting enmity between different groups) and imputations, assertions prejudicial to national integration)," senior police officer B Ramesh said. She was denied baillater and sent to judicial custody for 14 days. A local court will hear her bail petition on Monday.
