"BJP and their MLA T Raja Singh issued a video expressing their hate against Prophet Muhammad. The prophet lives in the hearts of Muslims...We will continue our protests till this MLA is arrested," said Owaisi.
T Raja Singh had released a 10-minute video making derogatory statements against the Prophet which led to a huge furore demanding action against him after which he was suspended from the party after saying that his remarks were against the party's line.
The Telangana BJP MLA was booked for his comments and later taken into custody. The FIR was registered against him at the Dabeerpura Police Station under sections 153A, 295, and 505 of the Indian Penal Code.

He was produced before the Nampally Court in Hyderabad by the Police in connection with his alleged derogatory comments against Prophet Muhammad. (ANI)
