Kasaragod, Sept 11: The National Investigation Agency (NIA) has asked the Kerala Police for the details of conversion of people from different faiths to Islam at Therbiyathul Islam Sabha in Kozhikode, a religious centre authorized by the Kerala government.

In a status report filed before the Supreme Court, the NIA said it had sought information on the activities of the Kozhikode-based organisation.

It was at this Islamic centre that Akhila Asokan alias Hadiya, a 25-year-old Hindu girl, converted to Islam and later married a Muslim man.

Her parents moved the Kerala High Court alleging that she was radicalised and converted to Islam and forcibly married to a Muslim. The court annulled the marriage and Akhila’s husband Shafin Jahan moved the SC, which asked the NIA to investigate the ‘love jihad’ case.

The NIA, in its report, also said it had examined several records of the Kerala police and there seemed to be an “organised effort” in the conversion. The probe agency had not been able to question the woman even once. She continues to live under “house arrest”. Hadiya is a homeopath.

The NIA said, “During the investigation of Crime No 21/2016 of Perinthalmanna police station, Kerala Police has recorded the statement of detenue Hadiya, after she was sent to her parents by Hon’ble High Court of Kerala on May 24, 2017.

Hadiya has been consistently maintaining that she had decided to convert to Islam on her own and Sainaba and her friends had assisted her in the process and in her subsequent marriage with Shafin Jahan, on her request.

Retired SC judge R.V. Raveendran who was asked by the SC to supervise the investigation has recused himself from the case.

When people recognize the TRUTH of ONE GOD worship, they accept ISLAM its as simple as this.. There is no need to have any investigation.

 

If God says Alcohol is Prohibited - You should verify the house who has a drunkard,  and how is his health and what is his relationship with his family.

 

If God says Pork is prohibited - You should verify How bacteria in Pork are harming human intestines.

 

If Prophet of God said Dont get Angry - You should verify and see the result after your family members gets angry.

If Prophet of God said have patience - You should verify and notice yourself how Your heart felt contemplate.

If God is telling you to use your intellect - You should verify why VEDAS says (NA TASYA PRATIMA ASTI) There is no image of God.

Mangaluru, Feb 26: The 'Yakshagana' stage in Karnataka is witnessing a curious spectacle with a Muslim woman artiste creating waves with her performances.

Arshiya, the artiste from Vittal in Dakshina Kannada district, is the first woman from the Muslim community to venture into the popular traditional theatre art form.

At one time, women were barred from Yakshagana stages.

A Muslim woman exponent on stage has attracted the attention of 'Yakshagana' lovers in the state.

Arshiya is now getting advanced training in her skills at the Kadali Kala Kendra under Ramesh Bhat here.

Arshiya, who is fond of 'Bannada Vesha' (villain roles), is now known in her stage name 'Tanu Vitla.'

She has already performed various episodes on stage and gained popularity.

Arshiya, currently working in an automobile showroom at Padil, said she was attracted to the art form from a very young age.

The initial enchantment with the art form came as she saw the role of Mahishasura in 'Sri Devi Mahatme Yakshagana Prasanga' (episode) performed near her home town.

She was attracted to all the elements of the art form, which combines music, percussion, dance, dialogues, stage techniques, make-up and costume.

Arshiya said she was also inspired by a teacher in her school at Vittal who trained her for a performance on stage during the school's annual day celebration.

She started performing on local stages at Vittal at the very young age of 10.

Arshiya now performs prominent roles on stage including Mahishasura in Sri Devi Mahatme Prasanga, the role which enamoured her in her childhood.

She also has donned the roles of Nishambhasura, Rakthabeejasura, Srinivas Kalyana, Sudarshanopakyana, Kadamba Kaushike and Shambavi Vijaya.

Her performances at Udupi and Karwar besides Mangaluru have earned her a lot of admirers, who love her 'Asura' roles, thanks to her loud voice.

Arshiya now wants to learn the 'Chende' (percussion instrument), which is an important element in Yakshagana performances.

Arshiya revealed that there was a bit of resistance from her community about her passion for the art form, but she had staunch backing of her family.
