While speaking about her ordeal to ETV Bharat (Assam), she said, “I want to appeal to Hindu women to not marry Muslim men. Beware of their trap…They will keep you for some time and then physically torture you, stop giving you food…”
Raiful Islam entraps Hindu girl with a fake name in Assam’s Sivasagar
In October last year, another such case of grooming jihad came to light in the Sivasagar district of Assam. A Hindu girl had accused a man named Raiful Hussain of fraud, torture and forced conversion. Based on her complaint, the Sivasagar police had registered a case against Hussain.
The girl in her complaint alleged that Hussain befriended her on Facebook in the year 2016 by posing as Rajiv Hazarika alias Raj Hazarika. He had shaved off his beard to mask his Muslim identity and instead posed as a Hindu. Gradually, she started meeting Hussain and both fell in love.
The duo got married in the year 2017. However, things did not remain the same post-marriage. After three months of marriage, the victim discovered that Rajiv aka Raj’s real name was Rafiqul Islam. However, it was too late by then.
Rafiul had started physically and mentally tormenting her. He compelled her to convert to Islam and changed her name to ‘Ayesha’. She was also forced to wear a Burkha to conceal her identity. Subsequently, it was revealed that Rafiul was already married four times before he married the victim.
