Red ‘cross marks’ in Muslim societies trigger panic in Guj

AHMEDABAD:

Panic gripped Muslim families in some pockets of a Hindu-dominated area here after they found red “cross marks” on the main gates of their societies on Sunday morning. An investigation, however, revealed that the marks were painted by the civic body’s sanitation staff. The police swung into action after residents of one such society in Paldi area here wrote a letter to the Election Commission and police commissioner.
