According to the TOI, the Madhya Pradesh police had indeed arrested eight men and publicly paraded them, with the men being half-naked, on the streets of Indore. The reason for this incident, as per The Times of India, was allegations against the men for engaging in stone-pelting and causing a disturbance. In the video, the men were seen chanting, ‘Paatharbazi nahi karenge, nahi karenge,’ which translates to ‘We will not engage in stone-pelting, we will not.’

Moreover, according to the report, In an effort to address the situation, the police not only paraded them but also compelled them to apologize to the local residents for inconveniences caused by their actions. Additionally, the police required the men to collect the stones they had thrown and seek forgiveness from the local community. According to the police, all these individuals have Muslim names and previous criminal records.

Hence, all these points prove that the eight Muslim men who were paraded half-naked by the Indore police were not innocent as they pelted stones at each other and caused a disturbance. Apart from this, they had a criminal history as well.
