Srinagar: Student activist Shehla Rashid Shora on Monday filed a case in Srinagar against mafia don Ravi Poojary for allegedly threatening her -- on a day when JNU student leader Umar Khalid was attacked in Delhi.

"FIR number 45/2018 u/s (under section) 506 RPC filed by J&K Police against Ravi Poojary on my complaint," Rashid said on Twitter.

She said Ravi Poojary had warned her, Khalid and Dalit leader Jignesh Mevani to shut up.

"Meanwhile, got this death threat from right-wing Hindutvawadi fundamentalist Ravi Poojary. He warns Umar Khalid, Jignesh Mevani and me to shut up! Threat by SMS #DigitalIndia," she said.

In a message to Rashid - the screenshot of which the student activist put up on Twitter - Poojary said, "Just shut your mouth or we will shut your mouth forever. Tell Umar Khalid and Jignesh Mewani also. Mafia don Ravi Poojary".
