Clashes in Lucknow after Shia clerics arrested

By: Nizam Hussain

LUCKNOW, India: Tension gripped large parts of the old city Sunday following prolonged clashes between the police and agitated mobs protesting against the arrest of Shia clerics Maulana Kalbe Jawaad and Maulana Agha Roohi.

Apart from pelting stones at police, the mob also resorted to arson, vandalism and staged road blocks for more than four hours.

Police said the trouble was sparked off over the question of supremacy in the governing council of the Shia College here.
