  • Agra: 4 Hindutva workers arrested for implicating Muslims in ‘cow slaughter’

    Agra: 4 Hindutva workers arrested for implicating Muslims in ‘cow slaughter’

    [ad_1]

    After a police investigation found that four Muslim youngsters were falsely accused of cow slaughter on Ram Navami, Agra police arrested four Akhil Bharat Hindu Mahasabha (ABHM) workers for filing a fake complaint.

    The police said that the ABHM members conspired with the rivals of the four wrongfully accused youngsters, and the entire plan was concocted to settle scores.

    Among the arrested ABHM workers is Sanjay Jat, who claims to be the organisation’s spokesperson. He has previously grabbed local headlines for making divisive and communally heated utterances. The four ABHM activists have been charged under the Indian Penal Code section 120B (criminal conspiracy).

    “Four ABHM activists and office bearers — Jitendra Kushwaha, Sanjay Jat, Brajesh Bhadoria, and Saurabh Sharma — have been arrested for hatching a conspiracy on the sensitive occasion of Ram Navami,” RK Singh, the additional commissioner of police (ACP), stated on Wednesday.

    In addition to the four ABHM members, authorities have arrested three rivals of the four innocent youngsters for being active participants in the plan. “Seven people have been arrested in this case so far. One of them surrendered himself,” ACP Singh stated.

    On March 30, Jitendra Kushwaha, an ABHM office bearer, filed an FIR at Agra’s Itimad-ud-Duala police station against four Muslim teenagers, stating that they butchered a cow on Ram Navami. Jitendra said that he and other ABHM members hurried to the scene, but the ‘accused had gone by then’.

    CCTV evidence, however, proved that the four youngsters accused of cow slaughter were not present on the scene on the day in question, and the phoney report was submitted out of rivalry. Shanu (alias Illi), Imran Qureshi, four ABHM members, and three others reportedly plotted the plot.

    Shanu and Imran both reportedly have a criminal history. They face half-dozen charges in several cases. Previously, Nakeem, one of the four youngsters framed by the accused group, filed a complaint against Shanu and Imran. The two were detained when Nakeem, an Agra Nagar Nigam employee, filed a complaint. This is why the accused couple harboured resentment towards him and the other three and plotted with ABHM personnel to frame them in a bogus case, the police said.

  • Hindutva workers slaughter cow to incriminate Muslims in Agra

    Hindutva workers slaughter cow to incriminate Muslims in Agra

    Uttar Pradesh Police on Saturday stated that some members of the Akhil Bharat Hindu Mahasabha butchered cows in order to instigate communal violence during the Ram Navami parade in Agra.

    On the eve of Ram Navami, Agra Police arrested four youngsters suspected of cow killing. During a raid during Ram Navami celebrations in Gautam Nagar in the Etmaduddaula region of Agra, the youngsters were apprehended.

    According to the police, Sanjay Jat, the Hindu Mahasabha’s national spokesperson, is the chief conspirator. Many others are also reported to be part of the plot. A man named Jitendra Kushwaha reported the cow slaughter at Etmaduddaula police station.

    According to DCP Suraj Rai, several facts came to light during the police inquiry. The police arrested two people identified in the FIR: Imran alias Thakur and Shanu.

    Shanu informed police that he arrived at Mehtab Bagh at 8 p.m. on March 29 and encountered Imran, Salman, and Sairo. They then decided to slaughter a cow that was wandering about in the street. That’s when Shanu and Imran went to inform Jitendra Kushwaha.

    “(Mahasabha leader) Sanjay Jat is the main conspirator. His followers and friends slaughtered a cow in the Mehtab Bagh area on the night of March 29 and told party member Jitendra Kushwaha to file a case against Mohammad Rizwan, Mohammad Nakim and Mohammad Shanu. The police arrested Imran Qureshi, a fourth suspect, and Shanu the next day. Later, the investigation revealed that the named accused had nothing to do with the crime. An inquiry suggests that Sanjay had an enmity with some people and wanted to implicate them in the case,” The Telegraph quoted R.K. Singh, additional commissioner of police of the Chatta area of Agra, as saying.

    “The cow was slaughtered on the eve of Ram Navami to disturb social harmony. We had unconfirmed reports about such an incident but got conclusive evidence when they tried to implicate some innocent people,” another cop said.

    Some Hindu Mahasabha workers complained about Jitendra Kushwaha and Sanjay Jat, claiming that they personally had the cow slain in order to disrupt Agra’s communal peace on Ram Navami.

  • UP HC grants anticipatory bail to man booked under cow slaughter laws

    UP HC grants anticipatory bail to man booked under cow slaughter laws

    [ad_1]

    Lucknow: The Lucknow bench of the Allahabad High Court has granted anticipatory bail to an accused booked under the cow slaughter Act, saying the evidence cited is shoddy.

    Passing the order recently, a bench of Justice Mohd Faiz Alam Khan observed that the case was a glaring example of misuse of the penal law as neither the prohibited animal nor its flesh had been recovered from the possession of the accused or from the spot, and only a rope and some amount of cow dung had been collected by the investigating officer.

    In its order, the bench also added, “The duty of the State is to ensure fair investigation which in the considered opinion of this court has not been done in the instant case.”

    Hence, the bench said that the order be placed before the DGP for taking necessary action in order to remind the investigating officers of their duty to ensure fair investigation in all criminal cases in general and in the cases pertaining to cow slaughter in particular.

    The bench passed the order allowing the anticipatory bail plea of Jadagi alias Najimuddin. His lawyer had pleaded that the applicant was falsely implicated by Sitapur police in the case.

    “No prohibited animal or any meat of progeny of cow has been recovered and the investigating officer has only collected the cow dung found on the spot and has sent the same for forensic investigation and during the course of investigation, a report has also been submitted by the Forensic Lab, Mahanagar, Lucknow that cow dung could not be examined,” argued the petitioner’s counsel Narendra Gupta.

    In its order, the bench also clarified that that all the observations contained in the order were only for disposal of the instant anticipatory bail application and would not affect the trial proceedings in any manner.

    Abolishing cow slaughter is the cure for climate change, claims Gujarat judge

    [ad_1]

    A Gujarat district court observed and claimed that abolishing cow slaughter is the ‘cure for all problems, including climate change.

    “All the problems of the earth will be solved if cow slaughter is stopped,” principal district judge Samir Vinodchandra Vyas of Tapi district court made these observations while sentencing a man for life imprisonment with regards to illegally transporting 16 cows.

    The man was arrested in August. Besides the life sentence, he was also fined Rs 5 lakh.

    “The problems that exist today are because of the increase of the irascibility and hot temper. The only reason for the increase is the slaughter of cows. Till this is completely prohibited the saatvik climate change cannot have its effect,” Justice Vyas said.

    The judge did not stop there. He claimed that according to science, houses made of cow dung are not affected by atomic radiation.

    “The use of gaumutra (cow urine) is a cure for many incurable diseases,” Vyas claimed.

    According to Bar ad Bench, the incident happened in November last year. Vyas says that he is disappointed there are fewer debates and discussions on the benefits of cow protection.

    “Cow is not only an animal but a mother. A cow is the living planet of 68 crore holy places and 33 crore gods. The obligation of a cow on the entire universe defies description,” Justice Vyas claimed.
