Ranchi, Oct 11: In a case of police brutality, a Muslim youth breathed his last at a hospital in Ranchi after he was allegedly beaten tortured by police in Narayanpura Police station in Jamtara in Jharkhand.

brutality polcie22-year-old Minhaj Ansari, a native of Dighari village under Narayanpur police station, was picked up by police along with two others on October 3 on charges of posting provocative texts in a WhatsApp group.

According to local police the objectionable message posted on October 2 had the potential to trigger communal tension in the region. On October 4 the police released two others and continued to detain Ansari.

The two people who were released bore the marks of police torture throughout their body. They informed that Ansari had lost his eyesight in the custody due to police torture. When the family members of Ansari rushed to the station, the cops told them that he was ill and taken to a local hospital in Narayanpura.

When the family members reached the local hospital they came to know that Ansari's condition was extremely critical and he was already taken to the government hospital in Jamtara town. As his condition continued to worsen he was again shifted to Dhanbad for treatment on October 5.

The next day Ansari's family members rushed to Dhandbad. However, Narayanpura SHO Harish Pathak reportedly denied them a chance to meet the victim. This led to a scuffle between Pathak and family members of Ansari.

On October 7, Ansari was again referred to Ranchi Institute of Medical Science, where family members were allowed to meet him. After seeing Ansari his mother almost fainted. As per reports in local media, his eyes were wide open and he could not see anything. His spine and legs were broken.

Mohammed Ilyas, a family member, said that Ansari did not respond when his parents called him. On October 9 doctors pronounced him dead.

A tense atmosphere prevailed in Dighari after the incident. Meanwhile, the family members of Ansari revealed that police have warned them that if any form of protest takes place in the region they would be held direct responsible.

They next day two senior police officers visited the aggrieved family and them that action would be taken against the police. They also announced a compensation of Rs 2 lakh for the deceased's family. “Minhaj has a one-year-old daughter. What use is Rs 2 lakh, when you have killed her father,” asked Ilyas.

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.

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.

Kuwait: The Covid-19 pandemic has pushed the whole world into a difficult situation and the situation of Indians in Kuwait is not any different. Many people have lost their jobs, have no salary, are deprived of food and are not able to pay rent. The appalling conditions of labourers, domestic workers, taxi drivers and low waged earners don’t seem to end in Kuwait. 

At this trying situation when many people were even afraid of leaving their houses because of coronavirus, Suresh S. Rao Neramballi, volunteer of the Food Kit Distribution at the ICSG (Indian Community Support Group) has helped many tremendously. He was ready to go around delivering food kits at any time possible by his car. However, after Kuwait imposed a full curfew from 11th May 2020, no one could take out their vehicles unless they had a curfew pass. 

This did not stop Mr. Suresh Neramballi, who then borrowed a bicycle from a friend and ended up going around in the cycle delivering the food kits in curfew break time (4:30pm to 6:30pm) to all those who registered in the ICSG website. This selfless service surely commands appreciation and applause. Mr. Suresh Neramballi has been a light for many families and bachelors in Kuwait and will surely garner the blessings of them who have been able to eat at this time.

He was also the one who could deliver the food kits to many Indian Muslim maids, bachelors, laborers and families previous day and right on the day of EID, as they were not able to go shopping for their groceries for EID, due to the curfew. They blessed him in EID dua. 

Mr. Suresh Neramballi hails from Mangaluru, India and is an Engineer in the Oil sector company in Kuwait. He has been dedicated to social service, achieved 'Aryabhata International Award' for his Kannada Service and Social service, served in many Associations and Distributor of Kannada and Tulu Movies in Kuwait. He wholeheartedly thanks the people and government of Kuwait for his bread and butter.
