Hyderabad, Nov 22 (SocialNews.XYZ) Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (MIM) leader Akbaruddin Owaisi publicly threatened a police officer after the latter asked him to stop campaigning for allegedly exceeding the time limit as per the model code of conduct for the upcoming Assembly elections.
MIM leader, who is seeking re-election from Chandrayangutta Assembly constituency in Hyderabad, was addressing a public meeting on Tuesday night. Spotting a police inspector near the dais, he told the officer that there are still five minutes left.
"Do you have a watch or do you want mine," Akbaruddin Owaisi told the police official and moved towards him asking him to leave.
After returning to the mike, Akbaruddin Owaisi made certain remarks. The MIM leader stated if he signals his supporters, he (officer) would be forced to run.
Akbaruddin, younger brother of MIM chief and Hyderabad MP Asaduddin Owaisi, reiterated that he still has five minutes to speak and nobody can stop him.
"Do you think I have become weak after facing knives and bullets? I still have a lot of courage," said Akbaruddin, apparently referring to an attempt on his life by his rivals in 2011.
Akbaruddin is seeking re-election for a sixth consecutive term from Chandrayangutta. He has been leading MIM in Assembly since 2004.
