Hate speech: Guj court reserves order on Kajal Hindustani’s bail plea

[ad_1]
Gir Somnath: A court in Gujarat’s Gir Somnath district on Tuesday reserved its order on a bail plea filed by right-wing activist Kajal Hindustani in a case of her alleged “hate speech” on Ram Navami that caused a communal clash in Una town.
The court of additional sessions judge R M Asodiya reserved its order on Hindustani’s bail plea for April 13, additional public prosecutor Moham Gohel said.
The state government opposed the bail plea citing that the activist’s speech on Ram Navami hurt the sentiments of the Muslim community and subsequently led to the communal clash, Gohel said.

Hindustani had moved sessions court on Monday after a court of additional chief judicial magistrate rejected her bail and sent her to 14-day judicial custody after her surrender on April 9.
Hindustani’s speech on Ram Navami festival on March 30 caused a communal clash in Una town on April 1.
The police lodged an FIR against her on April 2 under sections 153 (wantonly giving provocation with intent to cause riot) and 295 A (deliberate or malicious act intending to outrage religious feelings) of the Indian Penal Code (IPC).
Hindustani, who identifies herself as an entrepreneur, research analyst, debater, social activist, and nationalist and a “proud Indian” on her Twitter bio and has over 92,000 followers, including Prime Minister Narendra Modi, and is a regular at events organised by the Vishwa Hindu Parishad.
She is known for her fiery speeches targeting the minority community, including the one she delivered at a ‘Hindu Sammelan’ organised by the VHP on the occasion of Ram Navami.

Communal tension prevailed in Una for two days, which led to clash and stone pelting between two communities on April 1.
The police have arrested 96 people and registered an FIR against 76 named persons and a mob of around 200 people under various IPC sections including 323 (voluntarily causing hurt), 337 (rash or negligent act to cause hurt), 143 (unlawful assembly), 147 (rioting) and 148 (rioting armed with deadly weapons).

Gujarat: Kajal Hindusthani booked for hate speech, 50 detained for communal clash

[ad_1]
Gir Somnath: Police have registered a first information report (FIR) against a right-wing leader for her alleged hate speech and detained more than 50 people on the charge of rioting following a communal clash at Una town in Gujarat’s Gir Somnath that left two persons injured, an official said on Sunday.
The communal clash erupted in a sensitive area of Una town on Saturday night with two groups hurling stones at each other amid tension caused by the speech of one Kajal Hindustani at a ‘Hindu Sammelan’ organised on the occasion of Ram Navami on Thursday, in which she allegedly targeted the Muslim community.
Una town had been on edge since the alleged hate speech. With traders keeping markets shut, the police and local leaders had on Saturday called for a peace committee meeting involving representatives of both communities who ensured normalcy. But hours after the meeting, a clash broke out in the communally sensitive area, police said.

“We have registered two FIRs. One is against Kajal Hindustani for hate speech, and another against the mob for rioting,” Superintendent of Police Sripal Sheshma told reporters.
“We have detained 50 to 60 people and are going through the CCTV footage. We are using local intelligence and questioning the detained persons for further action. The accused will not be spared and strict action will be taken against them,” he said.
Police personnel has been deployed in sensitive areas with some of them patrolling and some posted at static points. All the officers are available on call and all distress calls are being addressed on an immediate basis, he said.
“Two State Reserve Police Force (SRPF) teams have been deployed in Una so far in this case,” he said.
The leaders participating in the peace committee meeting reached a resolution, but the message did not reach the young generation and this led to a small incident of stone pelting, police said.

Police carried out combing operations during the night in Una town and seized a number of swords, rods and other such objects from some houses.
Nine held in Vadodara
Meanwhile, the police in Vadodara city the state on Saturday night arrested a right-wing activist Rohan Shah and some others for “hate speech” during a Ram Navami procession in the city on Thursday. The case against them was registered under sections 153 (A) (promoting enmity between different groups on grounds of religion, race, place of birth, and residence) and 34 (common intention) of the Indian Penal Code (IPC). Shah is a local leader of the Vishva Hindu Parishad (VHP).
Vadodara police said they have also arrested one Mohammad Vora for allegedly posting an edited video on Facebook with the intention of spreading communal enmity.
Members of two communities clashed after stones were hurled at two Ram Navami processions in Vadodara on Thursday, with the police registering FIRs and arresting dozens of people.

“I appeal to my Muslim sisters that if you get married to a Hindu man, there will be no co-wives to handle as well as you will not be treated as a child-bearing machine,” she said.

Amid slogans and cheers, she added, “You (Muslim women) will be protected by Hindu men of the family. No one can force or have incest with you.”
Kajal remarked on the burqa by saying Muslim women are free to wear any attire if converted to Hinduism. “You do not need to wear a burqa at 45-degree celsius heat,” she said.
