The Mumbai Traffic Police on Saturday received a message on WhatsApp from an unknown number saying Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath would be killed like NCP leader Baba Siddique if he didn’t resign from his post within 10 days. The police have now arrested a woman for allegedly sending the threat message.
The Mumbai Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS) in a combined operation with the Ulhasnagar police traced the woman and apprehended her. The police are investigating the matter.
Yogi Adityanath, one of the BJP’s star campaigners, will likely come to Maharashtra to campaign for the November 20 state assembly polls.
The police said the woman is 24 years old. She has been identified as Fatima Khan, who lives in neighbouring Thane district’s Ulhasnagar area.
She lives with her family. Her father is a timber businessman.
Fatima Khan has done BSc in Information Technology.
The woman is well qualified but is mentally unstable, the police said.
The police are trying to ascertain the motivation behind sending the message.
