Allah will not spare these cruel policemen, definitely they will die painful death!!

Its is shame on police dept for having such goonda type staff. I request the IGP to dismiss the poice staff responsible for murdering an innocent youth and transfer benefits due to these Police to the family of deceased. Govt should annount at least Rs. 25 lakh compensation to the family of the deceased.

There are many provocative whatsapp messages are being circulated on daily basis, are they going to kill all of them....reckless police should be arrested and given life imprisonment for their crime....

When Akhlaque ( Dadri )Killer died in hospital due to kidney failure Govt payed huge sum of more than 20 Lakhs Rupees. When a minor innocent Muslim killed by police no one raise voice. No compensation. Innalillah..

When 5 dalith's were beaten by upper caste Sangha Pariwar in Gujraj the entire Daliths i protested against brutality against them.

But when a muslim boy was beaten cruely and murdered by the police entire muslim's are mum.

In Muslims there is no unity . Shame on you Ranchi muslmano.

This incident shows us how police department discriminate the community. if any RSS member post anything like this, the police department even not file a single complaint against them. May Allah forgive all his sin & grant his Janna. Ameen

Vijayapura, June 16: Even as a video of a man wearing a burqa who is being thrashed by locals is going viral on social media, netizens targeted Bharatiya Janata Party for their activist resorting to heinous acts.

The man who was caught in burqa has been identified as Siddu Paragond, an activist of Snagh Parivar hailing from Sindgi town in Karnataka’s Vijayapura district.

The bizarre incident took place in Sindgi on June 11 outside a bank.

“While people including women were standing in a queue outside the bank, the person in burqa was acting in a suspicious manner. The person was trying to get too close to women which was making them feel awkward,” local residents said.

“Getting suspicious, some locals tried to interact and their suspicion rose with the strange behaviour of the person. Suddenly some men took the person away from the bank and checked only to find that it was a man in burqa. The men thrashed him and handed him over to police,” the sources said.

Confirming this, Superintendent of Police Anupam Agrawal said that the Siddu Paragond has been arrested and remanded to judicial custody. He, however, made it clear that no suspicious objects were found on Siddu. “We are trying to find out the motive for his act,” the SP said.
