Ammu has landed into controversry when he made provocative speeches at the Mahapanchayat held at Indri village of Mewat to demand the release of accused arrested in Asif’s lynching case. He supported the killing of Asif saying that he was murdered because of his deeds

”Can’t we even murder them?” Ammu said in his speech.

After the speech surfaced on social media, many demanded his arrest. But the Hindutva party went on to appoint him as spokesperson.
