On Monday, a group of terrorists associated with the radical Islamist outfit Taliban had reportedly died, following an explosion at a mosque in Sikandar Khel Village in Chahabar Bolak district of Balkh in Northern Afghanistan.
According to a statement released by the 209th Shaheen Corps, the incident took place when 8 Taliban terrorists were busy manufacturing bomb inside the said mosque.
The explosion led to the extermination of four terrorists, namely, Zarif, Abdul Basir, Abu Bakar, and Habib and injured the other four. Reportedly, the explosion also destroyed a large number of explosives to make IEDs.
Radical Islamists killed 221 people in Afghanistan in 7 days
In a shocking revelation, it has been found that a staggering 221 people across the world have been killed by radical Islamists just in the first week of August, which is between August 1 and August 7, reported The Religion of Peace, a global Islamist crime watchdog. The website stated that radical Islamists have carried out a total of 38 terror attacks within just 7 days of August in 11 countries.
While the looming threat of radical Islamism is often negated, the Religion of Peace noted that radical Islamist terror outfits executed 135 such attacks in a month’s time. The said incidents of terror led to 646 injuries and 662 deaths in 21 countries.
The mystery surrounding the death of the 34-year-old actor Sushant Singh Rajput is getting deeper with each passing day. The final autopsy report of the deceased actor, conducted under the watch of the Mumbai police, has revealed crucial details which have now put the investigative authorities in the dock.
According to the final autopsy report, as accessed by Times Now, rigor mortis (stiffness in muscles) was observed on the upper and lower limbs of Sushant Singh Rajput. While no decomposition of the body was observed, the natural eyelids of the actor remained partially opened. The report further revealed that his tongue was inside his closed mouth and no frothing or oozing of blood was observed. The actor’s cornea was hazy, conjunctiva congested and his teeth remained intact.
Besides, the autopsy report rules out fractures around his neck and cranium. “Pressure abrasion (ligature mark) present around the neck at the level of thyroid-cartilage, passes obliquely upward, backward towards mastoid process on both sides,” the report noted. Besides, the report has mentioned the cause of death of Sushant Singh Rajput as ‘asphyxia due to hanging’.
Autopsy report of Sushant Singh Rajput lacks time stamp
As per a report by India Today, the final autopsy report lacked a timestamp, which is considered a critical piece of information. Dr. Sudhir Gupta, the head of the Forensics Department at AIIMS, has stated that the Mumbai police should have sought a second opinion from doctors since the column for the timestamp was left vacant. “It is a hard fact, what can be said about that … they should give it. It is mandatory,” he was quoted as saying. He further added, “If there is something missing (in the autopsy report) they have to take a second opinion from doctors.”
Medical team to scrutinise autopsy report
Dr Sudhir who had led the forensic investigation in the sensational cases of Jessica Lal, Sunanda Pushkar, Gopinath Munde, and Sheena Bora is a part of a team that will head to Mumbai on August 27 to analyse the medical and autopsy reports of Sushant Singh Rajput. Reportedly, he will be sent all files on Sunday and it would take him 3-4 days to scrutinise the reports.
Supreme Court directs Mumbai police to hand case to CBI
The Supreme Court on Wednesday directed the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) to investigate the unnatural death of Sushant Singh Rajput. The SC has asked the Mumbai Police to hand over all the evidence they have collected in connection the case so far to the CBI. Observing that the FIR registered at Patna on the complaint filed by Rajput’s father was correct, the SC said that the CBI will be competent to probe not only the Patna FIR but any other FIR related to Rajput death case.
In a significant victory to Hindus in Tamil Nadu, the Tirunelveli district authorities have imposed a ban on carrying out funeral at a recently built Christian cemetery near the ancient Manimoortheeswaram Uchishta Ganapathy temple at Tirunelveli district in Tamil Nadu.
In November 2019, the activist group Legal Rights Observatory (LRO) had lodged a complaint against the land encroachment near the gopuram of ancient Manimoortheeswaram Uchishta Ganapathy temple of Tamilnadu’s Tirunelveli by a local church.
LRO has lodged complaint to Tamilnadu’s Tirunelveli DC requesting removal of encroachment of Christian cemetery illegally started at very near to the Gopuram of ancient Manimoortheeswaram Uchishta Ganapathy Temple. It is heinous attempt to usurp temple land in future @arunv2808pic.twitter.com/XwHyVIL8Fh
In its complaint to the District Commissioner of Tirunelveli district, LRO had urged the authorities to remove the Christian cemetery, that had come up very close to the gopuram of ancient Manimoortheeswaram Uchishta Ganapathy temple. The complainants had alleged that the church was attempting to usurp temple land in the future.
District authorities impose a ban on funeral at cemetery
Following the complaint by LRO, the Tirunelveli administration has imposed CrPC section 145 and also ordered to ban on carrying out any funeral in the encroached land.
On Friday, the Hindu activist group LRO took to Twitter to inform about the district authorities’ decision.
Responding to the complaint, the Tirunelveli district administration has said that the Christian cemetery is located in a private land and due to the objections raised by the devotees and people from the local area they have imposed a ban on carrying out any funeral at the cemetery land.
Taking cognisance of the charge sheet filed against former AAP leader Tahir Hussain for his involvement in the Delhi Anti-Hindu riots, a Delhi court on Friday said that Muslims turned violent after AAP leader Tahir Hussain had provoked and started pelting stones on the Hindu community.
According to the reports, the court took cognisance of the charge sheet filed by the Delhi police against the former AAP leader for his role in instigating the riots and the brutal murder of IB official Ankit Sharma’s murder during the Anti-Hindu riots in northeast Delhi in February. The court also issued a production warrant against the accused and asked them to be produced through video conference on August 28.
However, the police informed that they are yet to obtain a sanction to charge Hussain and other co-accused in the case from the authorities concerned as required in a sedition case.
Metropolitan Magistrate Purushottam Pathak, however, noted that any delay in proceeding further in the trial will unnecessarily delay and defeat the purpose of constituting special courts for trial of the riot cases.
“I am of the opinion that there is sufficient material on record to take cognisance of the offences alleged to have been committed by accused persons,” the judge said in his order.
Anti-Hindu riots is a well planned conspiracy: Delhi court
Taking cognizance of the charge-sheet filed by the Delhi police, the court observed that the Anti-Hindu Delhi riots took place in a “planned manner” resulting from a “well-hatched conspiracy”. The court said that the riots were allegedly abetted by the leader of the mob, accused Tahir Hussain and other co-accused also acted upon.
The court added, “Accused Tahir Hussain also facilitated them to the rooftop of his building and provided other logistics support with a view that large scale riots maybe there causing the resultant loss to life and the property of the other community.”
The court observed that prima facie the accused Tahir Hussain was leading the mob from his house and also from the Masjid near Chand Bagh Pulia on February 24 and 25. He was instrumental for the gathering of the unlawful assembly in conspiracy with accused persons namely Haseen, Nazim, Kasim, Sameer Khan, Anas, Firoj, Javed, Gulfam and Shoaib Alam, having common intention and unlawful object, the court said.
“He provoked and instigated his community against the other community with a view to promote enmity on the grounds of religion between Hindus and Muslims claiming that Hindu people have killed a number of Muslims and have set their shops on fire att Sherpur Chowk and they should not let any Hindu go scot free. On his provocation/instigation, the Muslims turned violent and became volatile on 24.02.2020 and 25.02.2020 and started burning ships and pelting stones and petrol bombs on Hindu community and also targeted their houses situated in that locality. Thereupon, the uncontrolled mob turned into rioters and in process of rioting, caught hold of Ankit Sharma and ragged him to Chand Bagh Pulia and caused his death by inflicting multiple injuries using sharp objects/weapons in a brutal manner and with a view to conceal evidence, all of them in furtherance of there common intention, threw his dead body in the drain”, said the Court.

The court also said Hussain provoked and instigated his community, promoting enmity on the grounds of religion between Hindus and Muslims claiming that Hindu people have killed a number of Muslims, set their shops on fire at Sherpur Chowk and they should not let any Hindus getaway.
Most significantly, the Court said that “There is sufficient material on record to take cognisance of the offences alleged to have been committed by accused person”.
Muslim mob led by Tahir, killed Ankit Sharma
The charge-sheet mentioned that the mob led by Tahir Hussain came from the side of Chand Bagh Pulia, caught hold of IB officer Ankit Sharma and dragged him, beat him to death and threw his body in the drain.
In the charge sheet, Hussain is named as the main accused along with nine others — Anas, Firoj, Javed, Gulfam, Shoaib Alam, Salman, Nazeem, Kasim, Sameer Khan for the murder of Sharma.
The post-mortem report had stated that the Muslim mob had killed Ankit Sharma with sharp objects after 51 stab injuries were found on his body. The charge sheet said Sharma was killed by the cold-blooded rioters, which had shaken the social fabric of the society and instilled a fear in the minds of the residents of the area.f
Tahir Hussain – the mastermind behind the Anti-Hindu Delhi riots
Tahir Hussain, the Aam Admi Party (AAP) councillor who involved in the organisation and execution of the Delhi Riots. In the charge-sheets filed by the Delhi Police and the Special Cell, it is revealed that Tahir Hussain met Umar Khalid and Khalid Saifi of ‘India Against Hate’ group and hatched a plan for the Delhi riots way back on the 8th of January. This meeting was held at Shaheen Bagh where the anti-CAA protests were taking place.
The charge sheets also say that Tahir Hussain got money to organise these riots from several quarters in shell companies. In another disclosure, it was reported that Khalid Saifi had even travelled to Malaysia to meet Islamist Zakir Naik to collect funds for the Delhi Riots.
In his disclosure statement, Tahir Hussain details how he organised the riots to take revenge against Hindus and teach ‘Kafirs’ a lesson. He further talks about making PCR calls in between the riots to ensure that he had a solid alibi. Further, he also reveals how he had organised for thousands of Muslims to congregate in the Chand Bagh area to carry out the riots.
On Friday, the Mumbai Police, which has recently been under fire for not adequately investigating the death of Sushant Singh Rajput, arrested a 26-year-old man named Shashikant Jadhav from Aurangabad for harassment and use of objectionable language against actress Sonakshi Sinha. He has also been involved in the harassment of other actors as well.
A 26-year-old man from Maharashtra’s Aurangabad city arrested for posting abusive and obscene comments on Bollywood actor Sonakshi Sinha’s Instagram account: Police
Reportedly, Sonakshi Sinha had been subjected to ‘cyber bullying’ on Twitter, post which she deactivated her account. When the ‘online harassment’ continued even on her Instagram page, she sought the help of one Ritesh Bhatia from Cyber Baap and Mission Josh to help identify the perpetrator. Sonakshi Sinha then approached the cyber cell of the Mumbai police on August 14, following which Shashikant Jadhav was nabbed on August 21.
DCP (Mumbai Crime Branch), Rashmi Karandikar stated, “We have arrested the accused. Mumbai police cyber cell continues to play a role in making the internet a safe place. Also, women’s safety has always been our priority. Cyberbullying and cyberstalking are punishable offences. We should all work in the direction of making the internet safe for all.”
Accused apologises for his derogatory remarks
“I have realised my mistake. I had made foul comments on the Instagram profile of Sonakshi Sinha and other actors. That’s why I have been arrested. I want to apologise to all of them. I will not repeat my mistake ever again,” Jadhav was heard as saying.
Sonakshi Sinha speaks up on cyberbullying and harassment
Recently, the actress had launched a campaign titled Ab Bas, in association with Mission Josh, to raise awareness about cyberbullying, its impact, and legal options that can be pursued in such cases. Taking to Instagram, Sonakshi said, “The online world was made to be a safe space for all of us.. Jo aaj bilkul bhi nahin hai (It is no more now.)” She emphasised that she will not tolerate abuse anymore and encouraged others to follow suit.
Thanking the Mumbai police, she said, “I am immensely grateful to cybercrime branch Mumbai for taking prompt action and being so supportive. I took this step to report the culprits so that even others gather the courage to do the same. Ab Bas, we will not watch and allow online abuse to happen to us or others.”
Amit Tuli, associated with the actress’ team, stated, “Our aim was to ensure the conversation around harassment translates into action, so that it deters many others. Today it’s the celebrities being threatened, tomorrow it could be any of us, and this chain needs to be broken.”
Mumbai Police under fire for not investigating the death of Sushant Singh Rajput adequately
The Supreme Court has directed the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) to investigate the unnatural death of Sushant Singh Rajput. The SC has asked the Mumbai Police to hand over all the evidence they have collected in connection the case so far to the CBI.
Observing that the FIR registered at Patna on the complaint filed by Rajput’s father was correct, the SC said that the CBI will be competent to probe not only the Patna FIR but any other FIR related to Rajput death case.
The apex court justified the actions taken by the Bihar police in the case as the Mumbai police had not only failed to register an FIR in the case but had also failed to conduct investigations relatable to the allegations in the complaint.
“The records of the case produced before this Court, does not prima facie suggest any wrong doing by the Mumbai Police. However, their obstruction to the Bihar police team at Mumbai could have been avoided since it gave rise to suspicion on the bonafide of their inquiry”, the SC said, observing that Mumbai Police were conducting only a limited inquiry into the cause of unnatural death, under Section 174 CrPC.
It observed that complainant and Bihar Government had claimed that the Mumbai police, even during the limited inquiry under Section 174 CrPC, were attempting to shield the real culprits under political pressure, a claim which it said was “stoutly refuted by the State of Maharashtra”.
On Friday night, the Delhi police have reportedly arrested an Islamic State (ISIS) terrorist named Abdul Yusuf from North Delhi after a brief exchange of fire between the terrorist and the police personnel. The cops had also recovered 2 kg of IEDs (Improvised Explosive Devices) and a weapon from the IS operative.
ISIS terrorist Abdul Yusuf was nabbed on Ridge Road between Karol Bagh and Dhaula Kuan in Delhi after a shootout. The police also recovered a pistol from him post-firing.
Delhi Police engages in retaliatory firing
The Delhi Police had received inputs about Yusuf from Central Intelligence authorities, post which he was nabbed by the cops. When he was asked to surrender by the police personnel, the ISIS terrorist fired 2-3 shots at the police personnel. This led to a brief exchange of fire between the two sides.
#Breaking | Delhi Police arrested IS operative with IEDs from North Delhi last night.
As per reports, a manhunt has been launched by the Delhi Police to find the source who helped Yusuf procure the explosives. The ISIS terrorist had been planning to carry out a lone-wolf type attack in the National Capital.
However, it is unclear whether he wanted to carry out a suicide bombing attack or an attack in a crowded place. Reportedly, Yusuf was radicalised on social media and many of his handlers are based in Syria and Pakistan.
Shekhar Gupta, one of the foremost faces of supposed “neutrality” in the world of journalism and the chief of the Editors Guild of India recently acknowledged that journalists naturally had political biases.
Speaking on his Youtube show, celebrating three years of his media venture ‘The Print’, Shekhar Gupta took some questions from his audience.
One of the audience members asked him a question on how does he prevent his biased opinion from coming into his ‘journalism’. Responding to his question, Shekhar Gupta said that if any journalist ever said he or she was neutral, the person must surely be lying.
It's mea culpa season in sekoolardom. Btw Coupta @ShekharGupta, take it one step forward and accept you are a Congress voter. Just do it pic.twitter.com/GS4N4wv9CS
Gupta then went on to say that even journalists were human beings and they are not neutral. “We are human beings. We cannot be neutral. We are not machines and we are not robots. Remember, after five years we all go and vote,” says Shekhar Gupta.
Further, Gupta said that everybody votes for a political party after five years. In the video, he even says that the Chief Justice of India, President of India, Chief Election Commissioner vote every five years, insinuating that people who exercise their constitutional right during elections too have their political biases.
Shekhar Gupta further laments about political parties, which people like him oppose, winning elections after elections with a huge majority. He says, “You cannot change it or you cannot deny”. Essentially, Shekhar Gupta says that he has learnt to deal with his bias over time and it is not easy. Citing an example, Shekhar Gupta says that a political party, that you don’t want to win, may win and while reporting, you have train yourself to simply say “this party won”.
Gupta adds that he has learnt to live with prejudice based on his experience. “News is always what you wanted to be,” Shekhar Gupta admits in his show.
The veils of neutrality finally slip
For a very long time, the self-proclaimed “liberal” establishment has claimed that the journalists who further the narrative that they believe in, including Shekhar Gupta are “neutral”. In essence, they said that the journalists who they repose their faith in often have the ability to put aside their political biases and report news in a manner that has no ideological slant.
This is, of course, not true. Every five-star journalist that India has seen often has a strong political bias that leans to the Left. In a rare moment of honesty, Shekhar Gupta has admitted that neutrality is a sham that was created for journalists to further their own agenda without being questioned on their own biases.
Everything is not good between the once long-time allies Pakistan and Saudi Arabia. The relationship which had been flourishing not so long ago is currently on the rocks, most notably reflected by the snub to the Pakistani Army General Qamar Javed Bajwa on his visit to Saudi Arabia.
Pakistan General Bajwa is currently on a trip to Saudi Arabia, apparently, in an attempt to iron out the strained relationship between the two countries. However, the Pakistani Army Chief General was rebuffed when his request for a meeting with the Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman was turned down and he was fobbed off with obligatory meetings with the Saudi Vice Minister of Defence Khalid bin Salman and the Saudi Chief of General Staff Maj. Gen. Fayyad bin Hammad Al-Ruwaili.
What led to a strain in a flourishing Pakistan-Saudi Arabia relationship?
Saudi Arabia and Pakistan had traditionally been strong allies which could largely be attributed to the commonality of the religion shared by the two. Islam has been an underpinning factor in holding the relations between the countries robust. However, until some time ago, Saudi Arabia was also one of the biggest economic benefactors of Pakistan. In 2019, Saudi Arabia had pledged to invest about $20 billion in Pakistan, including $10 billion investment to develop its Gwadar port.
Before that, Saudi had bailed out a plummeting Pakistani economy by granting Islamabad a generous loan package of worth $6 billion in 2018. The loan served as an elixir for the cash-strapped nation which was at that time under severe economic crisis, staring at an imminent financial collapse with shrinking foreign reserves and a swelling trade deficit.
The difference between Saudi Arabia and Pakistan emerged over the latter’s unyielding view on Jammu and Kashmir
The difference between the two long-time allies–Pakistan and Saudi Arabia–emerged when the latter sided with India over the Kashmir issue earlier this year. The dispute between the two countries took root in February 2020 when Saudi Arabia passed up Pakistan’s request to convene a special meeting of the Council of Foreign Ministers of the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC), to get Muslim countries’ to condemn India on the Kashmir issue.
Ever since India hollowed out Article 370, stripping Jammu and Kashmir of its “separate status”, Pakistan has been demanding on a meeting of the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation to internationalise Jammu and Kashmir and get India to reverse the decision.
The recent utterances by Pakistani Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi further dented the already fragile relationship between Saudi Arabia and Pakistan. “If you cannot convene it, then I’ll be compelled to ask Prime Minister Imran Khan to call a meeting of the Islamic countries that are ready to stand with us on the issue of Kashmir and support the oppressed Kashmiris,” he had said. By this, Pakistan had threatened to split OIC, the international organisation of Islamic nations headed by Saudi Arabia.
Saudi Arabia is also threatened by the emergence of a new Muslim-world order
This is the not the only thorn in the frazzled ties between the two nations. The Kingdom also feel threatened by the emergence of a new bloc of Muslim countries that directly threatens Saudi Arabia’s leadership of the Muslim ummah. Last year, Saudi Arabia had refused to attend a summit organised by Malaysia as it was not organised under the banner of OIC. In fact, Saudi even forced Pakistan to pull out of the international summit of Muslim leaders held in Malaysia.
The Turkey authoritarian ruler Erdogan had then revealed that Pakistan PM Imran Khan—who had passionately supported the summit—had to withdraw from the meeting after Saudi Arabia put pressure on Islamabad and issued economic threats to Pakistan. He claimed that the Kingdom had threatened Islamabad of repatriating 4 million Pakistanis working in Saudi Arabia and also to withdraw $3 billion from Pakistan’s central bank even as Pakistan is teetering on the edge of a financial crisis.
According to the reports, Saudi had demanded Pakistan early repayment of a $3 billion loan. Earlier in August, Pakistan borrowed $1 billion from its all-weather ally–China to pay off Saudi Arabia.
The realignment of Saudi Arabia’s geopolitical interests with India
While Saudi Arabia had been resolutely standing besides Pakistan for decades on its concerns vis-a-vis Kashmir and providing monetary and military assistance to Islamabad, the recent shift in its stance can be partly attributed to the geopolitical reality and the benefits derived from having a mercantilist relationship with India. India is the fourth largest trading partner of the Middle-east Kingdom and the value of the bilateral trade between the two countries is close to $28 billion, an overwhelming of which had been due to the crude exports to India.
Besides, the trade ties between India and Saudi Arabia have deepened, with Saudi Aramco reportedly investing in Indian behemoth Reliance Industries. It is also being reported that Saudi Arabia’s public investment fund (PIF) has initiated discussions with Reliance Industries on investing about $1 billion in Jio’s fiber assets.
With the world focusing its attention on the renewable sources of energy and the slackening demand for the crude oil, the notion of fostering profitable trading relations with an emerging regional power such as India and investing in futuristic technologies build by Indian companies is more lucrative for the Gulf countries, including Saudi Arabia, than continuing to align with the cash-strapped Pakistan, which is on the brink of an unsalvageable financial crisis and risk disrupting its favourable trade ties with India.
With the coronavirus pandemic wrecking serious economic damage, and with little respite expected in the foreseeable future, countries have discerned that the glue of shared economic interests has a greater likelihood of weathering them through this economic turmoil than the fixation with the commonality of the religion. It is, perhaps, this sobering realisation that has caused Saudi Arabia to tacitly ask its former ally Pakistan to get over its obsession with Jammu and Kashmir, the territory which Pakistan characterises as its “jugular vein”, and reconcile to its changed identity.
In a positive development, the Madras High Court has reportedly allowed the installation of idols of Lord Vinayaka outside the homes of devotees as well as immersion of the idols in water bodies. The ruling has come in response to pleas that challenged the order of the Tamil Nadu government banning people from installing idols at public places or taking out processions.
No community should be prevented from celebrating religious festivals
While disposing of the plea, a 2-Judge Bench of the Madras High Court comprising of Justices MM Sundresh and R Hemalatha observed that no community or individual should be barred from participating in their religious festivals. However, the court stated that those celebrating the festival must adhere to social distancing guidelines and reiterated that no processions or celebrations by any organisation will be entertained.
Madras High Court objects to arguments made by the State
Vijay Narayan, the State advocate-general, stated that relaxations provided during the installation and immersion of idols of Lord Vinayaka can lead to law and order issues in Tamil Nadu. He argued that the government order to ban processions was done keeping in mind the difficulty in controlling the crowds. The High Court strongly objected to the arguments made by the State and directed that individuals must be allowed to immerse idols in water bodies.
During the course of the hearing, the Shiv Sena President Radhakrishnan agreed to not organise processions. Further, G Karthikeyan representing the Hindu Munnani also contended that no processions would be organised and that the organisation will abide by the government order.
A triple-talaq victim, hailing from Sujatganj, Kanpur, Uttar Pradesh, was advised to follow Sharia law and accept the triple talaq given to her by the husband when she went to the Babu Purwa PS to lodge a complaint against the same. “It’s because of girls like you that people get to interfere with Muslim laws”, police officer Mansoor Ahmed allegedly reprimanded the victim asking her to obey her husband.
When Hina Parveen confronted the officer, saying that Indian law has declared triple talaq illegal and unconstitutional, the police officer Mansoor Ahmed sternly replied: “You are not the first girl to be given triple-talaq. This is a regular Muslim practice under the Sharia law, which you should follow. Forget about Indian law, just follow Sharia law”.
IO of Babu Purwa PS, Mansoor Ahmed, who had lectured Hina, asking her to give in to the demands of her husband and his family, has reportedly been transferred and IO Pawan Dubey has replaced him and taken charge.
What transpired
Hina Parveen had married one Noorzade alias Ishan from Ajit ganj, falling under the jurisdiction of Babu Purwa police station area in Kanpur, Uttar Pradesh on July 5, 2019. Noorzade went to Saudi Arabia, three months after their marriage. On October 27, 2019, Noorzade made a Whatsapp call to Hina and gave her triple talaq over the phone. After this, her in-laws beat her up and threw Hina out of the house.
Hina filed an FIR against 8 people including husband Noorzade, mother-in-law, father-in-law, brothers-in-law and sister-in-law on November 4, 2019, at Babu Purwa police station. Hina alleged that her in-laws had demanded Rs 5 lakh as dowry. Her parents, who belonged to a humble background, could not arrange for the money, following which, the in-laws started torturing her and conspired the divorce, said Hina. She also accused her brother-in-law of threatening her of an acid attack, after she lodged the FIR against them. Hina had also taken to social media to sought help in January.
According to a Jagran report, Hina Praveen feared that the probe in her case would be hampered, as her in-laws might influence the police in Babu Purwa thana. Owing to this, she had demanded the authorities to transfer her case to the Rail Bazar police station.
As per her demands, the case was transferred to the Rail Bazar police station. Reportedly Sujatganj police station in-charge Mansoor Ahmed had been entrusted with the inquiry but he had taken no action in the case. After Mansoor Ahmed’s transfer, the case was handed over to inspector Pawan Dubey.
Kanpur triple talaq victim accuses police of inaction
On August 11, 2020, inspector Pawan Dubey arrested Hina’s husband, Noorzade and sent him to jail. Shockingly, Hina learnt that except Noorzade, all other accused names were deleted from the FIR.
Hina Parveen, the triple talaq victim from Kanpur, had accused the police of inaction. She said that it’s been almost 9 months since she registered the complaint against in husband and his family but no action has been taken against them.
Husband on record admits of bribing the police with Re 50,000: Hina Parveen
Hina confirmed that she has ample evidence against her husband. She has a phone recording in which her husband admits of bribing the police with Re 50,000 so that the names of his family members are removed from the FIR. She said that in the phone recording her husband confesses of plotting against her with the help of his family members. He confesses that he married Hina for money. In the audio recording, Hina says, Noorzade can he heard using filthy language against the Prime Minister and the police establishment. Despite having such concrete evidence, why isn’t the police taking any action, asked Hina?
The accused heard confessing of conspiring against his wife
She confirms that she has met the CO of Babu Purwa police station, Alok Singh, and asked him to inquire as to why police have removed the names of the accused from the FIR. Alok Singh has reportedly given Hina assurance that he would expedite the matter.
She said that on Alok Singh’s instructions, IO Pawan Dubey called her up and took former IO Mansoor Ahmed on conference call. While Pawan Dubey said that Mansoor Ahmed had removed the names of the other accused in the case, the latter refuted the allegations.
Hina, who has been running pillar to post seeking justice for the last 9 months has demanded that on the basis of evidences she has produced, the police must take immediate action against all the accused.
