Former CM Prithviraj Chavan received a threatening email after Chavan demanded the arrest of Hindutva leader <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/mumbai/mumbai-news/article/thane-wont-allow-house-to-function-if-sambhaji-bhide-is-not-arrested-by-wednesday-says-ncp-leader-jitendra-awhad-23301033" target="_blank" rel="none noopener">Sambhaji Bhide</a> for his alleged objectionable comments on Mahatma Gandhi's lineage.
Earlier, an FIR (first information report) was registered in connection with the threat mail and a day later a team from the Karad police arrested one Ankush Surate from Pune in the case.
"Surate, originally a resident of Parbhani, was placed under arrest after interrogation which revealed his role in the crime," he said.
As per the police, Chavan had received the threat email in his office at his residence in Karad on Saturday night.
Based on a complaint filed by Chavan's assistant, an FIR was registered under section 506 (criminal intimidation) and other relevant provisions of the Indian Penal Code and the Information Technology Act.
