Indian Express reports: The investigation into alleged anti-national slogans raised on Jawaharlal Nehru University campus earlier this month has been transferred to the Delhi Police Special Cell. The move to transfer the case to the unit that probes terror cases came on the day three JNU students arrested so far were questioned together.

Police sources said the case was transferred to the Special Cell as it specialised in investigations related to national security.

"Joint questioning of the three persons was done by the Special Cell. And the report mentions that the accused are not cooperating with the investigation. There is involvement of people from other states as well in the whole incident," said a senior police officer.

The order includes the names of all the three students -- JNU students union president Kanhaiya Kumar, Umar Khalid and Anirban Bhattacharya -- with their age and addresses.
