    Right arrest since no one has the right to degrade any faith.

    Dear Vincent, please there are two sides of a coin. Manoj has complained that Ali has degraded HIndu God whereas Ali is rejecting this allegation. Police should do prople enquiry. May be Manoj is wrong. Police should take necesary action whoever is fault.

    No excuse whatsoever. Put him behind the bars.
    There are few quotes below to better understand for those who unaware of the truth :

    "Na tasya pratima asti" God Almighty has no image (Yejurved32:3)
    They sink deeper in darkness those who worship sambhuti. (Sambhuti means created things, for example table, chair, idol etc (Yajurved 40:9)

    "You will certainly hear much abuse from the followers of previous books and from the idol-worshipping people. And if you are patient and keep your duty -- this is surely a matter of great resolution." (Quran 3:185)

    This issue needs to be investigated as Ali is denying the allegation. There is something fishy in complaint from Manoj. May be Manoj or some organisation is giving wrong information to create communal disturbance. In case the allegatin is incorrect POlice should arrest Manoj Kumar for trying to create communal disturbance. No one has the right to give wrong complaint about other. Police should do proper enquiry and see that no injustice is done to anyone. All citizens should have equal rights.
