Actor and vlogger Ajaz Khan, who shot into the limelight through his participation in Bigg Boss season seven, has been taken into custody by the Mumbai Police over his Tik Tok videos which incite communal violence, reports Times News Network.
In his latest controversial video, Khan can be seen mocking Mumbai Police after they registered FIRs against several Muslim users of Tik Tok who were spreading videos calling for revenge in response to the death of Tabrez Ansari in Jharkhand.
