Police have booked six people in Nuh, Haryana, for allegedly posting "defamatory" content against Congress's Ferozpur Jhirka MLA Mamman Khan, officials said on Sunday.
An FIR (First Information Report) was filed on Friday at the Nagina Police Station, after MLA's brother, Mustkeem Khan, complained about the issue.
Three of the six accused were identified as Sahir, Jakaria, and Abbar. As it happened, Mamman Khan had raised the matter of slaughterhouses in Mewat.
On Friday, some people protested at the Nuh grain market against illegal slaughterhouses and slammed the MLA on social media.
"We have registered an FIR against six persons and are investigating the matter. The accused will be arrested soon," Nagina Police Station SHO Praveen Kumar said.
