Mumbai, Maharashtra
A teenager was detained for questioning on Wednesday at Palghar in Thane district for posting 'vulgar' comments against Maharashtra Navnirman Sena chief Raj Thackeray and the people of Maharashtra on Facebook, said the police.


"We have received a complaint against a person that he posted some objectionable comments against Raj Thackeray on Facebook. We are questioning him as we do not want to repeat the same mistakes committed a few days ago," an officer at Palghar police station said, speaking on condition of anonymity.

The boy has not been charged and the police have sought legal opinion on the issue, he said.

Meanwhile, Kundan Sankhe, president of Thane rural unit of the MNS, has claimed the boy had made vulgar comments about Raj Thackeray and the people of Maharashtra.

"Our Thane rural district MNS student wing president Bhavish complained to the police and asked them to investigate the matter. Police are questioning that person," he said.
