Newsroom, Feb 28:  Kerala girl Hadiya alias Akhila, who had faced torture for embracing Islam and then marrying a Muslim man, is now a doctor. Her husband Shafin Jahan, who had to face the allegation of so called ‘love jihad’ from a section of political parties and media, has shared this news with the people through a social media post.

“This shining victory is an outstanding achievement because it comes at the end of countless prayers, relentless struggles of separation and imprisonment, love, patience and so on,” wrote Shafin Jahan on his Facebook wall while proudly addressing his wife as “Dr Hadiya Asokan.”

He also uploaded a picture of Hadiya wherein she can be seen sporting a doctor’s coat and a stethoscope. “Finally You reached an important destination out of all odds. Very proud to address you a Doctor,” he commented over his wife completing her Homoeo degree course at a college at Salem in Tamilnadu.

Hadiya had to suspend her studies after her father K M Ashokan a hardline Hindutva activist hailing from Vaikom in Kottayam district in Kerala, moved the state high court in 2017 to annul her marriage to Shafin.

HC had annulled the marriage believing in Ashokan’s blatant lie that his daughter was forcibly converted to Islam and her marriage with Shefin was illegal. He also had claimed that Shefin had links with terror outfits. Ashokan had kept Hadiya under house arrest wherein she was tortured. The Supreme Court later set aside the HC order and allowed Hadiya to live with Shafin.

Hadiya had expressed her wish to complete her studies even at the court. While the case was progressing, Hadiya was allowed to continue her study at a college in Salem. And tight police cover was given to her. According to Hadiya, her husband encouraged her to continue with her studies.

Kalaburagi, Mar 14: Utter negligence of Kalaburagi health department officials was one of the main reasons for the death of his father, alleged family member of Kalaburagi man and India's first COVID-19 victim here on Friday.

The victim's son said 'if officials of Kalaburagi health department had advised us to admit his father in isolated ward, which was opened in Gulbarga Institute of Medical science (GIMS), my father's survival time may have been extended,' he said.

Thiruvananthapuram, Mar 18: Bindhu Sampath, the mother of Nimisha alias Fathima who travelled from Kerala to Afghanistan to join the Islamic State (IS), has sought the Central government's help to bring her daughter back to India.

"I saw a video of my daughter in which she was requesting her return to India. She has realised that India is her country, not Afghanistan. She is scared that she'll be put in jail over there. Responding to my mail, the Afghanistan government has said that the procedure will take time," said Bindhu Sampath.

"I believe in Indian laws. Let her be questioned and realise what is good or bad. I am waiting for the Central government's confirmation on the matter," added Sampath.

Around four years back, a team of 21 members which consisted of couples and children went to Syria from Kerala to join ISIS and lead an Islamic life. After they left, police registered a case against them, which has been handled by the National Investigation Agency.
