Prayagraj Police will be interrogating Khan for the next five days
In these 5 days, the police will be interrogating the YouTuber to dig out information about the people whom the YouTuber was in contact with and of those who were funding her hate-campaigns. It is being believed that Heera Khan might be associated with many Islamic organisations and foreign gangs, which have been instrumental in spreading hatred against India and Hindus and have been instigating and funding the vile Youtuber for the same.
According to reports, on Tuesday (August 25), following a video conference with UP CM Yogi Adityanath, SSP of Khuldabad PS, had himself interrogated Heer Khan. Owing to her defiance, Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS) was called which tried interrogating her, but then, the reason behind her transgression could not be known.
After Heer Khan’s arrest, Prayagraj police had recovered many anti-India and communally sensitive materials from the YouTuber’s house and during preliminary questioning, they gathered communally sensitive information from her. The police believe that there are many other things, like: Who was funding Heer Khan’s anti-national activities? From where did she get the expensive electronic gadgets recovered from her house? How much money was being spent on her hate-campaign every month? Heer Khan’s nexus with Islamic organisations and foreign gangs? which needs to be known.

Besides, the Prayagraj police are also in the lookout from her maternal uncle and her other associates. According to one of the reports shared by the Prayagraj police, her uncle, who has a cloth shop in Allahabad’s Roshan Bagh locality. It is believed that he was the one who had encouraged Heer Khan to participate in the anti-CAA and NRC protest at Prayagraj’s Mansoor Ali Park where she had vociferously spoken against the government and its decision.
Apart from her uncle, the police are also searching for one of her relative who is said to be associated with Jamaat-e-Islami-Hind and also the son of this relative, who is a member of the Student Islamic Organization.
