Support Arnab or will you support fascism: Smriti

November 04, 2020 11:07

Union minister Smriti Irani speaks up for Republic TV Editor-in-Chief Arnab Goswami who was arrested this morning in Mumbai. "Those in the free press who don't stand up today in support of Arnab, you are now tactically in support of fascism. You may not like him, you may not approve of him, you may despise his very existence but if you stay silent you support suppression. Who speaks if you are next?"

A team of Alibaug Police picked up Goswami from his residence Mumbai. Goswami, who was seen being pushed into the police van, claimed that he was assaulted by police at his home, while being taken away.

Goswami has been arrested in a two-year-old suicide case in which investigations were reopened recently, the Mumbai police said today. He was arrested for allegedly abetting the suicide of a 53-year-old interior designer, Anvay Naik, and his mother, in 2018.
