Terming Anna Hazare's detention by Delhi Police as 'unconstitutional', Samajawadi Party Chief Mulayam Singh Yadav today said the Gandhian and his supporters must be released 'immediately'.
"His detention is unconstitutional and if the government has any sense left, Hazare and his supporters should be released immediately," he told reporters outside Parliament here.
Yadav said Hazare was alone at the time of his detention and "there was no violence happening there and there was no need for this".
The SP leader said the government's step has led to a situation where "students, advocates and others have come on road to protest against this".
Asked if he supported Anna's movement, he said, "We have been fighting against corruption and he is also doing the same."
