Gopalganj: The Gopalganj police have registered an FIR against two named persons and arrested one for allegedly creating a fake Twitter ID of Union Home Minister Amit Shah and making offensive remarks against former MLA of Baikunthpur, Mithilesh Tiwari.
The incident came to light after Tiwari filed a complaint with the Mohamadpur police on the 13th of May against Vicky Kumar Singh, a resident of Devkuli village, and Praveen Kumar Singh resident of Shyampur village.
After the investigation, the police arrested a person named Vicky Kumar Singh on the 14th of May. "We have arrested a person named Vicky Kumar Singh from Devkali village," said Anand Kumar, SHO of Mohamadpur police station.
