DEHRADUN/HARIDWAR: Yoga guru Ramdev ’s younger brother Ram Bharat was sent on a 14-day judicial remand after being produced in a Haridwar court late on Wednesday for his alleged involvement in a clash at Patanjali Herbal Food Park , which left one dead and almost eleven others injured.

Tight police security was put in place in the Padartha area, where the food park is located, as tension loomed large after 42-year-old Daljeet Singh, who was killed in the fight that broke out between food park staff and local transporters, was cremated at his village Aithal near Haridwar on Thursday.

Police teams probing the incident reported finding seven rifles and several lathis from inside the park premises. “All the weapons have been seized,” Sanjay Gunjyal, IG Garhwal, told TOI . In another development later in the day, seven men, who were identified as private guards employed with the food park , were arrested from the Badshahpur bus stand in Haridwar.

Arrest Ramdev too along with his brother: Congress

Meanwhile, reacting to the incident, Ramdev ’s close aide, Archarya Balkrishna told mediapersons on Thursday that the incident at the food park was a result of “the food park’s employees acting in self-defence”.

“We feel genuinely sad that a man was killed in the incident,” he added. Regarding Ram Bharat’s arrest, Balkrishna alleged that he was being falsely being implicated at the behest of the state government who was out to take “political revenge.” “No FIR has so far been lodged against the real culprits in the case,” he alleged, adding that after the Wednesday incident, a number of miscreants had ransacked the food park factory for hours.

“Almost eight people were injured in the melee, but the police refused to file an FIR. It is unfortunate that the police, in connivance with politicians, is conspiring to render thousands of people working at the factory, jobless,” Balkrishna alleged.
