Mumbai: Mumbai police have arrested Republic TV editor Arnab Goswami. According to PTI, Mumbai police have arrested Arnab Goswami in connection with a suicide case of a 53-year-old architect two years ago.
A team of Alibagh police investigating the case arrived at Arnab’s residence this morning and recorded the arrest. Arnab Goswami alleged that he was beaten by the police at the time of his arrest.
The architect who did the interior work for Republic TV committed suicide. Architect Anwai Naik and his mother committed suicide in 2018 after being told by Republic TV that they had not paid their dues. In May this year, Maharashtra Home Minister Anil Deshmukh announced that the case would be re-investigated. The re-investigation order was issued on a complaint filed by Adnai Naik, daughter of the deceased Anvay Naik.
The daughter complained that the Alibagh police had not investigated their complaint that Arnab’s Republic TV arrears had caused her father and grandmother to commit suicide.
