Ahmedabad, Jan 29: The National Investigation Agency (NIA) has decided to probe into the claims of forced conversion of a Gujarat-born Malayali woman, who married a Muslim man from Kerala and after a fight with him accused him of trying to take sell her to terrorists in Syria.

Based on the complaint lodged by Akshara Bose (25), who had moved the Kerala High Court last year against her husband Mohammad Riyaz, a native of Thalassery, the NIA registered the case on Sunday, January 28. The case, which was earlier handled by the police, will now be handled by the NIA.

The NIA had, in November last year, said that it was ready to take up the investigation into the case if the HC wanted. The agency is already probing the Hadiya case, wherein the Supreme Court had recently ruled that the investigation could go as planned, except that her marriage to Shafin Jahan would not be probed.

What’s the Case?

Bose, born into a Hindu Ezhava family, is originally a native of Pathanamthitta in Kerala and resides in Gujarat along with her family. In her petition to the High Court, she had said that she met Mohammed Riyas while she was studying in Bengaluru.

She accused Riyas of forcing her to have sexual relations with him and recording the act. He then blackmailed her into converting to Islam and marrying him, after which Bose took the name Aisha, she told the court.  

She further alleged that he forged her Aadhaar card, got the marriage registered, and also forced her to listen to sermons by Dr Zakir Naik. She also accused her husband’s mother of colluding with him and alleged that they received gifts, in cash and kind, for converting a non-Muslim. She said she was also forced into wearing a veil and supporting ISIS.

Bose had gone to Saudi Arabia too along with Riyas in 2017. However, in her complaint, she alleged that she was forced to go to Saudi Arabia, where she was confined to a rented flat and was told that they would move her to Syria to “sell her to ISIS terrorists.”

She claimed that she managed to get in touch with her parents somehow, who got her a ticket back to Ahmedabad. She also alleged that there was a threat from Riyas and an activist of the Popular Front in Kerala.

However, those who know the couple closely claim that it was a love marriage and not a forced conversation. The woman decided to take revenge against him husband after a fight with him in Saudi Arabia.

Meanwhile, sources from NIA said that the agency would probe into all allegations made by the woman including forced conversion and attempt to sell her to terrorists.

In her complaint , she included everything to tarnish muslims... forced conversion, family & community support for conversion, flow of money for conversions.. forced sex, recording it to blackmail... forced to watch Zakir naik videos (to prove him as terrorist), connecting to popular front (to expand propaganda)... etc   . entire story seems hatched by Sangh parivaar or NIA itself for sangh parivaar....

Hahaha. Very comedy. Its a Balamangala's Dinga story. Please consult the film director before you need to create a story. At least, we should sense reality while reading. Bose is bengali family. A malayali with her family name "Bose" Come on man. Hey mallu's - whats going on?

Fantastic Cock & Bull story. It reminds me of CHANDAMAMA monthly story book I used to read half a century back. Instead of sneking into Muslims bed rooms, had these people searched few Ashrams in the country, thousands of sisters would have been saved and billions of wealth unearthed and loads of illegal arms & amuntions would have been seized. What a pathetic state of our great nation today!!!

Mangaluru, Apr 26: In the wake of the fears among local people regarding the cremation of coronavirus victims, an understanding has been reached with all stakeholders that the Mangaluru city corporation's crematorium here will be the official funeral site for such cases in future.

Mangaluru South MLA D Vedavyas Kamath, who had to face stinging criticism on social media for his alleged support to local people who stopped the cremation of a COVID- 19 victim at Pachanady near here on Thursday, took an active role in finding the solution.

The body of the victim, a woman, had to be taken from Pachanady to Kaikunje during the night, delaying the funeral by hours.

Kamath visited Boloor on Saturday and sought to convince the people that cremating the bodies of coronavirus victims would not endanger their lives in any way as the guidelines of WHO and union health ministry are being strictly followed.

The crematorium at Boloor is run by the MCC and has an electric furnace and firewood pyres.

Kamath said a tacit understanding that final rites of COVID-19 patients inDakshina Kannada will be performed at Boloor has been reached at a meeting with all stakeholders.

Cremating bodies in such a controlled environment is deemed safe as per guidelines, he said.

City Mayor Diwakar, local corporator Jagadish Shetty and MCC assistant commissioner Madan Mohan took part in the meeting.

The decision was conveyed to the DK district administration.

The district administration has also launched a campaign on dead body management protocol to convince the people to ignore misinformation being spread regarding the cremation of coronavirus victims.
