Mandsaur : The two Muslim women who were thrashed at Mandsaur railway station on the suspicion of carrying beef alleged on Thursday they were beaten at the behest of Bajrang Dal workers, even as the GRP arrested four persons in this connection.
“When we were coming to Mandsaur, few Bajrang Dal members stopped us and enquired about what we were carrying. We told them that it was ‘Paade ke meat’ (buffalo calf meat) they did not listen to us and said that it was beef,” Salma, one of the victims, told PTI.
“Later, when we told them that get it examined from a doctor (veterinarian), they did not agree to it and asked the other women with them to beat us,” she alleged.
The woman further alleged that they (activists) also threatened policemen when the latter tried to protect them.
The victims, Salma Mevati (35) and Shamim Akthar Hussain (30) were allegedly thrashed by self-appointed cow vigilantes. Later, police arrested the duo on suspicion of carrying beef.
However, after medical examination when it was found that it was buffalo meat, police dropped the charges against them of carrying beef. Subsequently, a local court last evening granted bail to the two women.
Salma demanded that those who attacked them and took law into their hands should be arrested soon.
GRP Ratlam’s deputy superintendent of police DRS Chauhan said that four persons, identified as Govind Rao Chouhan, Dilip Devda, Swadesh Chanal and Vikas Ahir, were arrested on Thursday in connection with the incident.
The accused were identified on the basis of a video footage.
Regarding women involved in the incident, the DSP said that after their identification they too would be arrested, and added that efforts are on to trace them.
The four men arrested have been booked under sections 323 (punishment for voluntarily causing hurt), 341 (wrongful restraint) and 34 (acts done by several persons in furtherance of common intention) of IPC, Chauhan added.
The incident came close on the heels of the attack on Dalit youths in Gujarat by cow vigilantes for skinning a dead cow, drawing outrage and triggering a slugfest between BJP and its rivals.
The opposition BSP and Congress created uproar in Rajya Sabha on Wednesday over the issue.
Yes,these culprits should be arrested to take law in the hand, shame to our police cannot control them to doing so.
Those idiots should be punished.
Why that ladies not arrested what else identification they need they want big big posters with address o what……?
I condemn Bajarang dal for attacking muslim women & taking law in their hands. They could have passed this case to police instead of beating them.
On the other side, it is observed that some part of muslim community still consuming cow’s meat even though it is banned. Muslims needs to change their mind set on meat. Why are you killing innocent animals? Human being can very well survive without killing animals. Eating meat makes you violent. At least start reducing frequency of consuming meat.
@SECULAR HINDU…before “advice” to muslims…..hindutwaadi idiot please post your take on …..gadhimai festival in khamkhayaa temple/assam( where thousands of “innocent” bovine are slaughtered in just one day….as also ghattari festival in maharashtra before shravan months….what about your ugli n pugli kali mataa with “thirst of balli” of animals and “innocent humans” ( her neck so well garlanded with human skulls n her long protuding ” khooni zubaan”)….so keep your not so impressive vedic comments to your chaddi/kniccker samaaj……hell to hindutwaad.
In Hinduism, Buddhism & Jainism consuming meat & killing innocent animals is banned. Gadhimai festival has stopped animal sacrifice from last year. Yes there are few places where hindus sacrifice animals but such act is black spot on hinduism. Around 50% hindus are pure vegetarian & remaining 50% eat meat once or max twice a week. Thus, in general hindus are inclined towards vegetarian diet.
On other side, muslims have no compassion towards innocent animals. Consuming meat daily has made muslims very violent.
@SECULAR HINDU…..SO PERFECT IS YOUR IDIOTIC MINDSET….CHRISTAIN ARGENTENIANS ARE THE BEST KNOW MEAT EATERS..ESP COW/PORK…THE HOMICIDE RATE IN ARGENTINIA IS NEGLIGIBLE ..HIGH CASTE HINDUS CONSUME MEAT ON DAILY BASIS IN KERALA….NOW YOU BUFFOON …HOW DO YOU ANSWER THAT..?
Please take notice on Vedaas. We believe that common Hindu brothers are ignorant of what their religion preaches.They are simply going against their own religious scriptures.
Following is the quote from HINDU SCRIPTURES –
????Manusmriti
Chapter 5 verse 30: “It is not sinful to eat meat of eatable animals, for God has created both the eaters and the eatables”.
????Aapastanba Grishsutram(1/3/10):
says, “The cow should be slaughtered on the arrival of a guest, on the occasion of ‘Shraaddha’ of ancestors and on the occasion of a marriage”.
????Rigveda (10/85/13) declares “On the occasion of a girls marriage oxen and cows are slaughtered”.
????Rigveda (6/17/1): states that, “Indra used to eat the meat of cow, calf, horse and buffalo”.
????Vashishta Dharmasutra (11/34) says, If a Brahmin refuses to eat the meat offered to him on the occasion of ‘Shraaddha’ he goes to hell”.
????Hinduisms great propagator Swami Vivekaanand said thus: “You will be surprised to know that according to ancient Hindu rite and rituals, a man cannot be a good Hindu who does not eat beef “. (The complete works of Swami Vivekanand vol : 3/5/36)
The book “The history and culture of the indian people” published by Bharatiya Vidya bhawan, Bombay and edited by renowned historian R C Majumdar (vol 2 ,page 18 says)This is said in the Mahabharata that “King Ratinder used to kill 2000 other animals in addition to 2000 cows daily in order to give their meat in charity”.
Aadi Shankaraachaarya commentary on Brahadaranyako panishad 6/4/18 says: ‘Odaan’ rice mixed with meat is called ‘Maansodan’ on being asked whose meat it should be, he answers ‘Uksha’ is used for an ox, which is capable to produce semen.
????Dear Hindu brothers and sisters what should we follow???
Religious books or ‘Communal’ political parties???
Ha, ha, ha, ha, your comment is funny “…….Eating meat makes you violent…….”
Other than Muslim world, whole Europe, America eat meat. Can you deliver your funny ‘Sermon’ to Europeans, Americans???????
If you can’t then shut your mouth
intolerance is rising,,,RSS/Bajarandal/BJP parties should be ban and put behind the bars
if these so called Gau rakshaks(Goons) are so desperate to offer their duties then they shoud do this cow raksha in Goa the BJP ruled state where there sentiments are not hurt when locals and tourists are enjoying beef there.
Bajrang Dal shares the VHP’s position against cow slaughter and has supported proposals for banning it.
