Prophet Comment Row: 'I am getting death threats, please give...', Nupur Sharma again urges THIS to Mamata Banerjee's police

Nupur Sharma Comment Row: Nupur has e-mailed and asked for some more time to appear before Bengal's Amherst Street police station. Nupur Sharma has been accused of breaching communal harmony with her controversial remarks on Hazrat Mohammad. There have been protests against her all over the country.

Expelled BJP leader Nupur Sharma was also summoned by the Amherst Street police station (West Bengal) after the Narakonda police station in the state. She was scheduled to appear at the police station on June 25, that is, today. But she didn't come today. Nupur has e-mailed and asked for some more time. Nupur Sharma has been accused of breaching communal harmony over her controversial remarks on Hazrat Mohammad. There have been protests against her all over the country, including in various districts of Bengal.

Earlier this month, roads were blocked in several areas of Bengal, including Howrah. Complaints were also lodged against Nupur Sharma at several police stations in different cities. Of these, a total of 10 police stations in Kolkata alone have registered cases against Nupur. Today, she was ordered to appear before the Amherst Street police station. But Nupur Sharma did not respond to the summons. It is learnt that she has sought four more weeks time from the Kolkata Police through an e-mail. Not only that, the expelled BJP leader also expressed fear about her life in the e-mail. 

An FIR was earlier lodged against Nupur Sharma at The Narakonda police station in connection with her controversial remarks on the Prophet. On the basis of this, she was summoned to appear before it on June 20. But Nupur Sharma has urged four weeks time citing security issues. In an e-mail, she said she was worried about her safety. So she needs four weeks' time to appear. This time, she gave the same reason in reply to Amherst Street police station's summon. 

It should be noted that a censure motion has been passed against Nupur Sharma in the West Bengal Assembly because of her controversial remarks. It has been alleged that her remarks are ruining communal harmony, whereas Bengal has always been in favour of peace. The censure motion was presented in the West Bengal state assembly and was passed with the support of all.
