I am 100% confident that your father was actually a father in Church. Your love to Muslims is because of their love to your sister.

I am 100% confident that this cow matha thief is BD activist and this is their daily duty. They steal cows and blames on muslims/christians. In most of the cases stolen cows are transported to Gujrat beef exporting factories owned by Pandits/Brahmins with bjp leaders as partners. this thief got just punishment from the cow itself, otherwise police would have said that he purchased the cow and was taking it home.

The cow was a PFI/SDPI worker, according to BJP leaders.
