  • Hyderabad: AIMIM demands murder case against Medak cops over man’s death

    Hyderabad: AIMIM demands murder case against Medak cops over man’s death

    [ad_1]

    Hyderabad: The All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) has demanded that policemen involved in the alleged torture of a youth leading to his death in Telangana’s Medak district be booked for murder.

    A 35-year-old daily wage labourer, Mohammad Qadeer, on Friday succumbed to the injuries he had sustained due to torture by the police.

    The man was picked up from his sister’s house in Hyderabad on January 29 on suspicion of being involved in a theft case and was brought to Medak.

    In a statement while undergoing treatment at a hospital in Medak, he alleged that he was kept in custody for five days and beaten up by policemen though he kept telling them that he was innocent.

    “The cops said the person involved looks like me,” he said.

    The police let him off on February 2 when he was unable to move his hands. They (police) asked him to tell others that he was kept in custody for one night. They also asked him to sign a paper and as he was unable to even hold the pen, one of the policemen signed the paper.

    Qadeer named the two constables and the Sub-Inspector (SI). He said while the SI only slapped him twice or thrice, the two constables beat him up all over the body.

    Due to the alleged torture, Qadeer could not stand on his feet, and his kidneys were also damaged. His wife Siddeshwari, alleged that police used third-degree methods on him. On February 9, he was admitted to a hospital in Medak.

    As Qadeer’s condition kept deteriorating, he was referred to Gandhi Hospital in Hyderabad for better treatment. However, he succumbed to his injuries on February 17 and is survived by his wife and two children.

    The body was handed over to the family members early Saturday morning after autopsy and it was later taken to Medak for last rites.

    Qadeer’s death triggered public outrage. Local Muslim community leaders urged Bharat Rastra Samiti (BRS) MLA M. Padma Devender Reddy to take action against the policemen involved.

    Subsequently, the MLA spoke with the Medak Superintendent of Police (SP) Rohini Priyadarshini, demanding an investigation into the incident.

    The SP transferred SI Rajshekar and the two constables, Pavan and Prashanth.

    AIMIM MLA from Hyderabad, Kausar Mohiuddin visited Medak and attended the funeral on Saturday morning. He slammed the police for the restrictions imposed on the funeral and questioned if Qadeer was a “naxalite or terrorist”.

    The MLA demanded that the three policemen involved in the case should be booked for murder. He said the FIR should be changed to include the names of the SI and the two constables.

  • Ex-cops plead not guilty over African-American man’s death

    Ex-cops plead not guilty over African-American man’s death

    [ad_1]

    Washington: Five former police officers in Memphis, who have been charged with murder over the death of African-American man Tyre Nichols, have pleaded not guilty in their first court appearance.

    The 29-year-old died in a hospital on January 10, three days after a traffic stop by Memphis police.

    On January 27, the Memphis Police Department released four graphic videos, totalling more than an hour of footage, showing the five former police officers, who are also black, brutally beating the victim.

    Tadarrius Bean, Demetrius Haley, Desmond Mills Jr, Emmitt Martin III and Justin Smith were fired after an internal investigation by the police department, the BBC reported.

    During the hearing at the Shelby County Criminal Court on Friday, Judge James Jones confirmed the five defendants had pleaded not guilty to charges of second-degree murder, aggravated assault, aggravated kidnapping, official misconduct and official oppression.

    The former officers are currently out on bail, with the next hearing scheduled on May 1.

    They face up to 60 years in prison if convicted of murder.

    The Memphis Police Department’s so-called SCORPION unit, to which the fired officers belonged, has been permanently deactivated.

    The fallout has also reached other agencies, including the Memphis Fire Department, which fired three emergency medical technicians.

    Two additional Memphis police officers have also been relieved of duty.

    The death of Nichols came nearly three years after the police murder of African-American man George Floyd in Minneapolis, Minnesota.

    Floyd, 46, died on May 25, 2020, after an encounter with Minneapolis police, during which white officer Derek Chauvin knelt on his neck for more than nine minutes while making an arrest with other colleagues.

    The police killing of Floyd sparked outrage and protests across the US in the summer of 2020 against police brutality and systemic racism.

    Police killed 1,186 people in the US last year, according to Mapping Police Violence.

    African-Americans were 26 per cent of those killed by police in 2022 despite accounting for only 13 per cent of the population.
