New Delhi, Feb 26, 2016 (PTI)
Delhi Police today interrogated JNUSU president Kanhaiya Kumar, Umar Khalid and Anirban Bhattacharya together for the first time at a south Delhi police station in connection with the sedition case.

The questioning started in the wee hours today and lasted for around five hours, before it resumed around 10.30 AM. The interrogation is taking place at R K Puram police station, a source said.

In the first round of questioning, Kumar was confronted with Khalid and Anirban separately. In the second round, the three were grilled together. The interrogation is being conducted by at least two teams, said the source.

He claimed that Kanhaiya has so far maintained that on February 9, he came out of his room only when he got to know about a possible confrontation between two groups over the event inside the campus and has dissociated himself with the event.

While Khalid has so far denied having indulged in any anti-national sloganeering, Anirban challenged claims that the slogans pointed out by the police were anti-national in nature, the source claimed.
