Mangaluru, Jan 28: Even though Muslim community have openly condemned the murder of Deepak Rao, a Hindu youth, Vishwa Hindu Parishad has openly endorsed the killing of Ahmed Basheer, an innocent Muslim man who was hacked to death on January 3 in Manglauru by communal goons.

Speaking at a function to release a book, Hadedavvana Shaapa, here on Sunday, Dakshina Kannada district president of VHP, Jagadish Shenva, called upon the Hindu society to support the accused persons involved in the murder of Ahmed Basheer.

Mr Shenva said that the VHP believed that an innocent Basheer was murdered in retaliation to the murder of another innocent Bharatiya Janata Party activist Deepak Rao on the same day.

He said that an innocent Sharath Madiwala was murdered (on July 4, 2017) a few days after the murder of Social Democratic Party of India activist Ashraf in Bantwal taluk. “Then why not Basheer be murdered in revenge for the murder of Deepak Rao,” he asked.

Mr Shenva said that there was a sense of anguish in a section of society following the murder of Deepak Rao. “We are not of the kind who will react like this. But there are a section of people who are prepared for it (to murder a person in revenge). As a society it’s our responsibility to protect such persons,” he said.

The hardline Hindutva leader also predicted that his statement will be widely reported and there would be cases filed against him. “But I will stand by this statement,” he said.

Meanwhile, a video clipping of Mr. Shenva’s speech was widely circulated on Facebook and WhatAspp groups. The police said that they are taking legal opinion on Mr. Shenva’s speech.

Ayodhya, Feb 18: A senior Supreme Court lawyer has written to the Ram temple trust on behalf of a group of Muslims in Ayodhya, asking that five acres of land around the demolished Babri Masjid where a graveyard is situated be spared for the sake of 'sanatan dharma'.

The letter, written by advocate M R Shamshad, is addressed to all 10 trustees of Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teertha Kshetra.

Shamshad said according to Muslims, there is a graveyard known as 'Ganj Shahidan' around the demolished Babri Masjid where 75 Muslims who lost their lives in the 1885 riots in Ayodhya were buried.

"There is a mention of this in Faizabad Gazetteer also," he said.

"The central government has not considered the issue not using the grave-yard of Muslims for constructing the grand temple of Lord Ram. It has violated 'dharma'," the letter stated.

"In view of religious scriptures of 'sanatan dharma', you need to consider whether the temple of Lord Ram can have foundation on the graves of Muslims? This is a decision that the management of the trust has to take," it said.

"With all humility and respect to Lord Ram, I request you, not to use the land of about four to five acres in which the graves of Muslims are there around the demolished mosque," the letter added.
