On the complaint from Dera Sacha Sauda follower Punit Insan, police arrested Amarinder Singh, a resident of Ambala City, for allegedly posting a fake photo of the Sect head on his Facebook account, Police Commissioner Ajay Singhal said.
The complainant has alleged that the bogus photo showing the Dera head touching the feet of late militant Jarnail Singh Bhindranwale has been posted on the Facebook which was protested by the Dera supporters.
