Minister of State for Home Kiren Rijiju on Tuesday said the Delhi Police will act as per the law to arrest the JNU students facing sedition charges.
Replying to a media poser as to when will the police arrest the students who raised anti-India slogans during an event in the JNU campus on February 9, he said the police will take action at an appropriate time.
Meanwhile, JNU student Umar Khalid and four others against whom a lookout notice had been issued moved the Delhi High Court today, seeking ample security before they surrender so that no untoward incident happens.
The five students Umar Khalid, Anant Prakash Narayan, Ashutosh Kumar, Rama Naga and Anirban Bhattacharya returned to the campus on Sunday night.
Earlier on Monday, Delhi Police Commissioner Bhim Sain Bassi asked the JNU students to join the probe and present evidence of their innocence.
When asked if the police would enter the JNU campus to arrest the students, the top cop said that his men are competent enough to deal with the situation.
