A ‘mentally unstable’ man carrying a blade was detained by the police after he tried to create nuisance at the hotel where US Secretary of State John Kerry is staying, police said on Thursday (Sept 1).
Uday Ratra, 53, a resident of northern state of Haryana, was booked after he engaged into a scuffle with the police and the hotel security staff who objected to his loitering in the lobby of the hotel last evening, police said.
‘He is mentally unstable. He was roaming around in the lobby of the hotel. The hotel security staff knew him as in the past too he had tried to enter the premises when foreign dignitaries were visiting,’ a senior police official said.
When Ratra was asked to leave the hotel premises, he started quarreling with the hotel security staff, the official added. 'The police rushed to the spot and apprehended him before he could create further trouble after being informed by hotel staff.
'He was not aware of Kerry's presence. It is a co-incidence that he came to the hotel on the day. When he was searched, a blade was found on him,’ added the official.
