Sambhal Police on Sunday said they have arrested seven people in connection with posters bearing ‘Free Gaza, Free Palestine’ messages appearing on the walls of shops in Narauli town. The poster calls for a boycott of Israeli products while encouraging people to buy Indian products.

Across the world, people are boycotting businesses that profit from the genocide in Gaza that has killed at least 51,000 Palestinians while blocking all aid into the besieged enclave.

Baniyather Station House Officer Ramveer Singh told PTI that the police had launched a probe and identified the seven individuals based on CCTV camera footage.

Additional information was gathered from the owners of the shops on whose walls the posters appeared.
