Mohammad Athar Hussain, injured in mob lynching in Roh police station area of Nawada district of Bihar, died in Bihar Sharif Sadar Hospital late on Friday night. Now Shabnam Praveen, wife of deceased Athar Hussain, is pleading for justice along with her children regarding his death. She said that my husband was killed only because his religion was different. The religion was seen by opening the pants, hands were broken, ears were cut off, electrocuted and beaten brutally. We neither got the support of the administration nor got justice, we want justice.
Shabnam Praveen told that she had lodged an FIR in Roh police station at around 8 pm on 6th December. They allege that before this, a separate FIR was registered at 10 am on December 6 by falsely accusing Athar Hussain of theft. Shabnam says that a deliberate attempt was made to show her husband as a criminal, whereas the truth is that he was targeted by asking his name and religion. He alleged that he did not get any concrete support from the administration after the incident.
There was an accident with her husband on 5th December – Shabnam
According to Shabnam Praveen, on December 5, when her husband Athar Hussain was returning from Dumri village, 6 to 7 intoxicated youth stopped him near Bhatta village. First the home address was asked, then the name. As soon as he told his name as Mohammad Athar Hussain, the crowd went wild. He was forcibly taken off his bicycle, robbed of his money and dragged into a room with his hands and legs tied.
Inhuman torture and violence in the name of religion
Family members allege that all limits of cruelty were crossed with Athar in the room. The religion was checked by opening the pants, an attempt was made to burn the private parts by pouring petrol on them. Apart from this, the body was branded with hot iron rods, fingers were broken, ears were cut and electric current was applied to the private parts. Younger brother Mohammad Chand raised the question whether Muslims do not have the right to live in Bihar. Is action taken only after seeing religion?
Athar recorded his statement before his death
Wife Shabnam told that during treatment at Nawada Sadar Hospital on December 7, Athar Hussain had narrated his entire ordeal to the ABP correspondent in a trembling voice. He had said that the police saved him and got him treated, but the wounds were so deep that his body was not supporting him. He died during treatment at Bihar Sharif Sadar Hospital on the night of 12 December. The postmortem took place at Nalanda Sadar Hospital under the supervision of the forensic team and magistrate.
Family members demanded action from police
According to Roh police station in-charge Ranjan Kumar regarding this incident, four accused Sonu Kumar, Ranjan Kumar, Sachin Kumar and Shri Kumar have been arrested in this case, while the search for others is going on. However, family members are calling this action inadequate. Son Istekhar Hussain said with downcast eyes that we only want justice from the government and administration. This case once again raises serious questions on the increasing incidents of mob lynching in Nawada.
