Bengaluru, Oct 14: A senior Muslim cleric has urged the Karnataka chief minister Siddaramaiah to take necessary steps to protect the interests of Muslim community in the state.
Shafi Sa'adi, state president of Sunni Students Federation, on Thursday called on the CM along with CM Ibrahim, deputy chairman of the state planning board in Bengaluru and discussed some of the problems faced by the community.
The cleric alleged that even though cow vigilantes belonging to right wing groups targeting innocent Muslims across the state, the police were going soft on the culprits and harassing the victims.
He said that even though the police arrest those who indulge in violence against Muslims, they register bailable and petty cases against the accused. On the other hand the police don't miss any chance to harass Muslims, he said.
“Several complaints have been lodged in various police stations in the state in connection with the derogatory social media posts against Prophet Muhammad. However, the police have not taken any serious action in this regard,” he alleged.
He also invited the CM to participate in the Muslim Jamath convention to be held on November 2 in Kodagu under the leadership and guidance of A P Aboobacker Musliyar Kanthapuram, General Secretary of the All India Sunni Jamiyyathul Ulama.
The kidnapped schoolboy was rescued by the police and reunited with his parents. Son of a gift shop owner from Basavanagudi area in Bengaluru, Chirag has reportedly told police that decided to make some quick money to spend on cricket betting and gambling after learning kidnap tricks from the ‘Crime Patrol’. According to police, Chirag reached a private school around 3pm on Tuesday on a Bounce rental bike and zeroed in on a fourth standard student who was walking out of school. He told the boy he was his father's friend and that he required help to search for a relative who had gone missing. The boy believed Chirag and rode pillion on the bike. Chirag then engaged the boy in conversation and learnt about his father's business and got his mobile phone number. He then made a call to the boy's father, demanded Rs 5 lakh and warned him against approaching cops. However, the boy's father alerted Cottonpet police and special teams were formed to crack the case. While Cottonpet inspector Venkatesh TC's squad verified CCTV footage in and around the school, Chamarajpet inspector BG Kumaraswamy's team started tracking the suspect's mobile phone movements. An hour later, the suspect's location was traced to a hotel on the Lavelle Road-St Mark's Road stretch. Police rushed there, rescued the boy and arrested Chirag.
