Two Muslim youths were beaten by a crowd including workers of a Hindu organization at the Premchhaya complex in Ujjain on Saturday, June 28. The activists alleged that one of the youths had trapped a minor girl in a "love trap". He recorded her objectionable video and threatened to make it viral. He was pressuring her to meet at his friend's room.
The petition was filed by one Maruf Ahamd Khan who submitted that the use of the term Love Jihad by media outlets and newspapers hurts the religious sentiments of the Muslim community.
Another case of love jihad against Hindu girls by trapping them in love affairs and marrying them has come to light from Indore. Congress councilor Anwar Qadri used to pay money to Muslim boys to trap Hindu girls.
Islamists are running a new propaganda campaign called the "Bhagwa (Saffron) Love Trap" and publicly sharing information about Muslim girls who are in relationships with Hindu men
Reports say that Afzal was earlier arrested in this case. His parents apologised to the girl and got him released from jail, but as soon as he came out, Afzal again started threatening the girl to convert to Islam or he would do her ‘Sar tan se juda’ (beheading).
As per the complainant, in June 2022, the accused Nadeem established sexual relations with her by promising to marry her. However, whenever she asked about marriage, the accused youth used to prevaricate.
