A 21-year-old MBBS student was detained by the Mumbai Crime Branch for allegedly sending threatening messages to the family members of Mumbai Police Commissioner Param Bir Singh on social media.

As per a report in Mumbai Mirror, Singh decided not to lodge a complaint against the student after he apologized. The student told the cops that he was influenced by the Republic TV reports on actor Sushant Singh Rajput’s death and that had impacted his opinion about the Mumbai Police, the Crime Branch said.
