Kozhikode, Dec 1: A local court has sentenced two convicts to life imprisonment and imposed Rs 1 lakh fine in connection with the coldblooded murder of Nasiruddin Azeez, who was a Muslim Youth League (MYL) activist.

The convicts are Kappacherry Basheer and Kollayil Andru, who were first and second accused respectively in the case. According to police, both of them are activists of Social Democratic Party of India. Basheer had even contested as SDPI candidate in the last local body election.

22-year-old Nasiruddin Azeez was murdered in front of the Salafi Masjid at Puthalath in Velom grama panchayat in mid 2016. The assailants blocked Nasiruddin, who was riding pillion on a bike and stabbed him on his chest and back.

According to investigators, active resistance against SDPI and extremist propaganda by Nasiruddin led to his murder.

There were seven suspects in the case and all of them were SDPI workers and supporters, according to police. However, the Kozhikode Additional Sessions Court (I) acquitted five of them for lack of evidence and convicted only first two accused.

The victim’s father K P Aziz has expressed satisfaction over the verdict. The court examined 37 witnesses. The testimony of the victim’s cousin Abdul Rauf turned crucial during the trial.

C K Sreedharan, who was special prosecutor in the case, argued that the SDPI workers had killed the young MYL worker due to political animosity. “The verdict should open the eyes of the SDPI top leadership which claimed to protect the rights of minorities,” he said.

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.
