The Government Railway Police have pressed charges of promoting enmity on grounds of religion on Chetan Singh, the 33-year-old Railway Protection Force constable who allegedly killed four men including his senior officer on the Jaipur-Mumbai Central Superfast Express.
The charge under Indian Penal Code section 153A attracts imprisonment up to three years. Besides IPC 153A and 363 (kidnapping), he has also been slapped with IPC sections 341 (wrongful restraint) and 342 (wrongful confinement), the railway police told a Borivali court on Monday. He had already been booked under IPC 302 (murder) and relevant sections of the Arms Act and the Railways Act.

Section 153A was added on the basis of the viral video clips of the incident that took place on July 31. The video clips, shot by passengers on the train, purportedly showed Singh making an objectionable speech, said a police source.
