A 30-year-old man was arrested by the Cumbum North Police after he threw a book bearing an image of a Hindu deity onto the ground, trampled on it and uploaded a video of the act on social media.
The accused, identified as Afsar, is the son of Mohammed Rafiq and a resident of Thathappan Kulam in Cumbum.
According to police, the incident occurred two days before the arrest. Afsar allegedly dropped a book carrying the image of a Hindu deity onto the ground, repeatedly stamped on it and recorded the act on video before sharing it online.
