A case of sedition under section 124A of IPC was registered against the Hyderabad MP by Saroor Nagar police here on July 15 in a court referred matter following a private complaint filed by a practising advocate K Karuna Sagar.

Sagar had stated in his complaint that “the stand of Owaisi and his remarks is boosting the morale of anti-nationals and giving oxygen to terrorists”.

The NIA had arrested five persons and detained six others, including a techie, after conducting searches at different locations in the old city area last month.
