After Muslim families in parts of the violence-affected areas of Haryana were asked to vacate their homes after their shops and shanties were set ablaze in Sector 70 area of Gurugram, a journalist interviewing the victims was threatened by men in an auto-rickshaw. As Anmol Pritam, a journalist from News Laundry, tried to talk to some of those fleeing homes, he was ordered go back and to turn off his camera (video above).

“Shut this down. Didn’t we tell you to turn this [camera] off,” the men said. “Yes, I am leaving,” Pritam told them, getting into a car. “How long does it take to leave?” one of the men said. Then one of them asked, “Are you a Hindu or Muslim?”

“We asked you to [leave], didn’t we...then why are you still interviewing them?” one of the men said. “These people are deeply troubled,” Pritam said. “Do you know what was happening?” the man replied.
