A Wadala-based pharmacist was assaulted and his head forcibly shaved in public by Shiv Sena workers last week for sharing an anti-Thackeray comment through his Facebook account. The police have registered a non-cognisable offence against several Sena workers including Shiv Sena shakha pramukh Samadhan Jugdar from Wadala.

According to complainant Hiramani Tiwari aka Rahul, on Friday, December 20, he received a post on his social media account saying "Uddhav takle ne bola hai ki Jamia ki ghatna Jaliyanwala Baag ki yaad dilaati hai, aakhir aahi gaya apni aukat par???" [Uddhav himself said that the Jamia incident reminds us of Jallianwala Baug incident. Shows his true colours finally]. Tiwari shared a screenshot of this message on his Facebook timeline after which he received a call from a friend belonging to the Shiv Sena. Tiwari removed the comment after the call.
