He was forcibly taken off his bicycle and robbed of his money, his hands and legs were tied and dragged into a room, where he was subjected to extreme cruelty.

Inhuman torture in the name of affirmation of religion, painful revelation on camera

Before his death, Athar had told on the camera of ABP NEWS how he was brutally treated. It is alleged that to confirm that he was a Muslim, his clothes were removed and his private parts were searched. After this, petrol was poured on the body and hands, legs, fingers and body were burnt with a hot iron rod. Fingers were broken and ears were cut with pliers. 10-15 people beat him brutally with sticks and rods. In this statement recorded at Nawada Sadar Hospital on the night of 7th December, Athar says that every child knows me, yet he was treated like this, this wound is unbearable.

Questions arising on FIR and police action

The police rescued Athar in his injured condition and got him treated, later he was referred to Bihar Sharif Sadar Hospital, where he died on the night of 12 December. The postmortem took place at Nalanda Sadar Hospital under the supervision of the forensic team and magistrate. In this case, Athar’s wife Shabnam had lodged an FIR on the night of 6 December.

Earlier, a complaint had also been filed against Athar accusing him of theft, which further complicated the matter. According to Roh police station in-charge, eight accused have been arrested so far. It is noteworthy that in 2025, incidents of violence and death have also come to light in Nawada in cases like suspicion of theft and witchcraft allegations, due to which serious questions are being raised on law and order.

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.

In February, two youths were beaten up on suspicion of theft, in which one died, and in August, an elderly couple was attacked on suspicion of witchcraft, in which the husband lost his life. Such cases have raised big questions on law and order and social thinking in Nawada.

Athar Hussain’s death is not just the death of an individual, but a deep stain on the face of the society. The question is, for how long will a person’s life continue to be taken by asking his name and religion, and when will the law stop being crushed at the hands of the mob?
