Uttar Pradesh police on Thursday obtained transit remand for Dr Kafeel Khan, arrested here for allegedly inflammatory remarks made by him at an anti-CAA protest in Aligarh last month.

A police official said the doctor, who was earlier arrested after a row over the death of several children at a hospital in UP's Gorakhpur in 2017, was being taken to Uttar Pradesh.

The child specialist was arrested in a joint operation by police from Uttar Pradesh and Mumbai on Wednesday, when he came to the city to attend a protest against the Citizenship Amendment Act.
