A teen opened fire at people protesting the citizenship law near the Jamia Millia Islamia university in Delhi this afternoon, injuring a student of the university. He shouted "yeh lo azaadi" (here's your freedom) as he walked down the heavily guarded road near the university flashing a gun at the protesters. The incident took place only meters away from dozens of policemen deployed outside the university, where protesters had gathered for a march.
Delhi Police has arrested the attacker after he was overpowered by the students.
Violence had broken out at Delhi's Jamia Millia Islamia university last month during a protest against the citizenship law. Earlier this month, masked goons attacked students and teachers at JNU, triggering nationwide outrage and protests.
