Muslim man converts to Hinduism with entire family to spur UP cops to investigate his son’s death

Baghpat(UP), Oct 3: After realising that the local police are treating his son’s suspected murder as suicide just because of his religion, a Muslim man in Uttar Pradesh has converted to Hinduism along with 12 members of his family.

The bizarre incident took place at Badarkha village under Chhaprauli police station area in Baghpat district on Monday (October 1). After formal conversation, Akhtar appealed the policemen to reinvestigate this son’s unnatural death case.

“We were Muslims. This might have discouraged the local police to properly investigate my son’s death case. Now, we have converted to Hinduism. I hope that at least now police will stop considering my son’s death as suicide,” said a helpless Akhtar told media persons after submitting affidavit to the area sub-divisional magistrate, testifying his “voluntary” change of religion.

The conversation took place with requisite rituals. The family members wrapped saffron robes around their shoulders and chanted “Jai Shri Ram”. They also got their names changed, he added. A 'hawan' and recitation of Hanuman Chalisa too was held at the Badarkha village on Tuesday.

Later, Yuva Hindu Vahini (Bharat) state chief Shaukendra Khokhar also urged the police to consider Akhtar’s son death case seriously.

Khokhar said Akhtar was upset after his son Gulhasan was "murdered". "Gulhasan's body, however, was hung to make it appear a suicide," he said.

“Despite repeated assertions by the youth’s family that he was murdered, the police concluded it to be a case of suicide. Akhtar’s family sought help from the members of their own community but they were not very forthcoming and did not help them much. This prompted Akhtar and his family members to change their religion,” he said.

Baghpat District Magistrate Rishirendra Kumar confirmed the incident and said the family members changed their religion as they were not satisfied with the police probe into the death of Akhtar's son a few months ago.

Islam is not a religion to add membership to show the population.

 

It is a true religion to practice guidelines of only one creator Allah (S.B.T). Accepting and quitting Islam will not make any difference for true Muslims. One who understands his creator will not reject his religion even if he dies because his life starts after death which is unlimited. The life in earth is so short that we can compare to hotel stay for a day.

 

Rejecting Islam means he is rejecting his creator Al Mighty Allah and it doesn’t mean he is quitting from Islam

 

 

Islam is the second largest religion in the world only in Qty. where is true Muslim? very few in qty

 

 

Accepting Islam doesn’t mean becoming membership in Islam. It is accepting his creator and his guidelines to practice successful and peaceful life and thereby prepare for his permanent life which starts after his death.

 

For true Muslims there is no fear to die. because he is always prepared and waiting for his death

 

 

May Almighty Allah guide us True path and success.

This is really unfortunate.  He has chnged in religion only to get the verdict in his favor.  Suppose he wont get it, will he convert to Christianity or Budhism or Sikhism?   Will the media give same preference in case he would have changed to religion other than Hinduism or if any Hindu converted to another religion.   This issue is now on the top agenda of Media and they are publishing it by applying ghee + butter.   None knows truth behind it.  However this family will not succeed in this world and the life after death if they convert to other religion though none can force them to change the religion.   Islam or Muslims will not lose anything if this family converts to another religion.   But this family will lose and they will realise it sooner or later.  Let us pray God to keep them on right path and not on the path of Sathan.

The religion is set of law decreed by the CREATOR/ ONE AND ONLY GOD.

It guides from birth till death and showing how to be also succesful in the life after the death.

 

This is not how we think just to suite the temporary needs.

Before accepting or rejecting any religion, he should have thorough idea of its teachings.

 

Unless it is known, believed in it  and practiced, we can not call him the follower of Hinduism OR ISLAM, OR Christianity OR whatever.

 

Like changing for personal temporary gains, has no meaning and not required they can live like aninals which have no religions.

The animals follow and  do whatever easy for them.

 

God give wisdom to all

Beijing, Feb 18: Police in China have arrested a prominent activist who had been a fugitive for weeks and criticised President Xi Jinping's handling of the coronavirus epidemic while in hiding, a rights group said Tuesday.

Anti-corruption activist Xu Zhiyong was arrested on Saturday after being on the run since December, according to Amnesty International.

China's ruling Communist Party has severely curtailed civil liberties since Xi took power in 2012, rounding up rights lawyers, labour activists and even Marxist students.

The death this month of a whistleblowing doctor who was reprimanded by police for raising the alarm about the deadly new virus before dying of it himself triggered rare calls for political reform and freedom of speech.

The "Chinese government's battle against the coronavirus has in no way diverted it from its ongoing general campaign to crush all dissenting voices," said Patrick Poon, China researcher at Amnesty International, in an emailed statement.

Another source, who spoke to news agency on the condition of anonymity, said Xu had been arrested in the southern city of Guangzhou.

Guangzhou police did not respond to requests for comment.

Xu went into hiding after authorities broke up a December gathering of intellectuals discussing political reform in the eastern coastal city of Xiamen in Fujian province, prior to the coronavirus crisis.

Over a dozen lawyers and activists were detained or disappeared after the Xiamen gathering, according to rights groups -- and Xu's detention appears linked to his presence at the meeting, explained Poon.

But while on the run, Xu continued to post information on Twitter about rights issues.

On February 4 Xu released an article calling on Xi to step down and criticised his leadership across a range of issues including the US-China trade war, Hong Kong's pro-democracy protests and the coronavirus epidemic, which has now killed nearly 1,900 people.

"Medical supplies are tight, hospitals are filled with patients, and a large number of infected people have no way to be diagnosed," he wrote. "It's a mess."

"The coronavirus outbreak shows just how important values like freedom of expression and transparency are -- the exact values that Xu has long advocated," Yaqiu Wang, China researcher at Human Rights Watch, told news agency.

But the disappearance of Xu illustrates how the Chinese state "persists in its old ways" by "silencing its critics", she said.

Xu -- who founded a movement calling for greater transparency among high-ranking officials -- previously served a four-year prison sentence from 2013 to 2017 for organising an "illegal gathering".

"That he was a fugitive for so many days while continuing to speak out, that in itself was... a kind of challenge to (Chinese authorities)," said Hua Ze, a long-time friend of Xu who told AFP she lost contact with the Chinese activist on Saturday morning.

Bengaluru, Jun 11: Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa on Thursday allowed the Opposition Congress party's newly elected state president DK Shivakumar to have a formal swearing-in function.

He told media, “I have spoken to Shivakumar and informed him to conduct the event after taking precautionary measures against the spread of the COVID-19 disease”.

The move came after the state government received flak from the main Opposition Congress leaders, for refusing to permit the newly elected State Congress president to have a formal swearing-in function take reigns from his predecessor Dinesh Gundu Rao.
