Girls held for Facebook post on Bal Thackeray granted bail - NewsX

The Shiv Sena's intimidatory tactics are on full display just a day after the cremation of party Supremo Bal Thackeray. A mob of Shiv Sainiks attacked and ransacked a doctor's orthopaedic clinic at Palghar allegedly because his niece asked in a Facebook post why Mumbai was shutdown for Balasaheb's cremation. In a shocking display of abuse of power and law, Mumbai police didn't arrest the mob that ransacked the clinic, but the girl who posted the message.

However, the girls who were arrested on Monday afternoon have been granted bail after initially being sent to judicial custody.
