A YouTuber from Uttarakhand, Gautam Khattar, has been detained in Himachal Pradesh's Kullu for allegedly hurting religious sentiments with derogatory comments about Catholic saint Francis Xavier at an event in Goa.
Khattar, who creates content related to spirituality and religion, had been absconding for a week and a lookout circular had been issued against him.
Goa Police booked Khattar after he allegedly called the saint a 'terrorist' at the Sanatan Dharm Raksha Samiti's Parshuram Jayanti celebrations in Goa's Vasco da Gama.
His brother, Madhav, was also arrested as a co-accused in the case after investigation revealed that he had drafted the speech, which was later shared on social media.
