My son was a cattle rearer, not a cow smuggler: Lynching victim Akbar Khan’s dad

Alwar, Jul 22: They brutally murdered him accusing him of being a cattle smuggler just because he was seen with cattle. But, the victim was in fact a cattle rearer and not a smuggler.

"My son was a cattle rearer not a cow smuggler. We own four cows and take care of them", said a teary-eyed Sulaiman Khan, father of 30-year-old Akbar Khan, who was lynched by a mob in Alwar district's Ramgarh late on Friday.

Devastated after Akbar's death, Sulaiman said, "It is impossible for me to believe that my son is no more. He left home on Thursday at 9 am with his friend Aslam to rear the cattle in the nearby village. We kept waiting for him but he did not arrive. It was in the morning that we came to know that he has been killed after the Ramgarh Police informed us. Everyone at our house is devastated and cannot accept that he is no more".

Akbar's friend Aslam, who was accompanying the former, is still missing. Both were residents of Kolgaon village situated alongside the Alwar- Haryana border.

Dismissing the allegations that his son was a cow smuggler, Sulaiman said, "Had he been into smuggling the police would have recovered a lorry or a truck near the place of incident. But just because two cows were found near his body does not justify that he was a smuggler".

"We are taking our son's body from the morgue here. But we request the police to arrest all those involved in his killing and give them the harsh punishment," he added.

Chennai, July 27: Multi-lingual actress Vijayalakshmi, who attempted suicide yesterday, alleging harassment and bullying by followers of Naam Thamizhar party leader Seeman and Panankattu Padai’s Hari Nadar, is recuperating at a hospital in Chennai.

Vijayalakshmi is known for films like Friends and Boss Engira Baskaran. She recently made headlines for speaking against Seeman and the torture she was allegedly facing from the actor-turned-politician and his party.

In the video which was uploaded on Sunday evening, Vijayalakshmi said, “This is my last video and I have been in tremendous stress in the last four months because of Seeman and his partymen. I tried my level best to survive all these days because of my mother and sister, but I have been humiliated in the media by Harinadar recently.”

She added, “I would like to tell fans who are watching the video just because I was born in Karnataka, Seeman has tortured me a lot. As a woman, I have put up with it to my highest capabilities. I won’t be able handle the pressure anymore. I am from the Pillai community, the same community LTTE leader Prabhakaran is part of. Prabhakaran is the only reason Seeman is who he is today, but now he has been harassing me on social media continuously. You slut shamed me to make me feel the pain and it is up to me to decide on what to do after facing such insults from you. I request my fans not to let Seeman get away from this case. He should never get anticipatory bail. My death should be a big eye-opener to everyone. I don’t want to be a slave to anybody.”
