New Delhi, Jul 14: In a big development, a local court in Greater Noida on Thursday ordered filing of an FIR against the family of Mohammad Akhlaq, who was lynched by a mob for allegedly slaughtering a cow.
The court has ordered that seven members of Akhlaq's family be booked under relevant sections of the IPC. Cow slaughter is banned in Uttar Pradesh.
The development came after the accused in Akhlaq's murder approached the court seeking FIR against Akhlaq's family in view of the Mathura forensic laboratory report that confirmed that the meat sample taken from the refrigerator in Akhlaq's house was beef and not that of goat, as suggested earlier.
Akhlaq, 52, was beaten to death and injured his son Danish after dragging them out of their home in Bishada village of Gautam Budh Nagar district on September 28, 2015 following rumours that he and his family had stored and consumed beef.
The issue had triggered a fierce debate over intolerance in the country.
A total of 19 persons are accused of lynching Akhlaq. Of these, one was given a clean chit by police and let off. Sixteen accused are still lodged in jail.

Ache din ki maa ki aur Modi ki .....
Modi visits all country for yoga publicity.
Why he is silent on protecting cows(hindu god) in foreign country ?
RSS and all hindu Groups should approach foreign country to stop killing their Gods, If foreign country rejects their proposal then they should take actions to boycott foreign goods.
Is there any man in RSS or Hindu group to stop killing of Hindu God in the world ?
Impotent people can bark in their boundary only with their hired media.
After all God is more important than Yoga.
WHO ARE THE JUDGES?
NOW A COW IS SAFE THAN A HUMAN BEING.
AMERICA imports and eats hindu god daily. Why modi is silent on this issue ?
He should approach other country to protect hindu god. Which is weaker by nature.
Impotent justice from impotent people. Expecting justice from idol worshipper is totally wrong.
Kabir Meat exporting company is run by RSS people. It kills millions of Hindu God daily.
Why there is no FIR against them?
Modi has given subsidy to kill hindu god.
If the did kill a cow they do deserve punishment , Did modi make him kill a cow ?
This is called justice....?
Modi Government is trying to get these murderers out from the jail to use them in the upcoming election in Uttar Pradesh....what a tragedy...there is no value for human kind...no humanity left in this country...by hook or crook these crooks want to rule the country....
