Bengaluru: The crowd gathered in the premises of the Hubballi court on Monday hurled shoes and slippers on the three students, who made a pro-Pakistan video, as police rushed them into a vehicle to take them away to remand. Some of the bystanders in the court halls raised full-throated ‘Bharat mata ki jai’ and ‘Jai Sriram’ slogans. Some objected when the Kashmiri students were made to sit in a special room in the court premises. They got into a verbal duel with the police for what they said was 'special treatment'. When the judge read out the remand order, there were cheers raised. Basit Aashiq Sofi from Baramulla, Talib Majeed and Amir Mohiuddin from Anantnag, students of civil engineering at KLE Institute of Technology in Hubballi, were given over to judicial custody till March 3 by judge Pushpa Jogoji today. Meanwhile, the crowd gathered in the premises of the court also slammed the police for poor handling of the case. They also demanded the suspension of the police commissioner of Hubballi, Dharwad Dileep, who gave contradicting statements about the release of the Kashmiri students yesterday.
