Activity Report
Malegaon (Maharashtra)
Mumbai, January 10, 2022: A two-member team of the All India Lawyers Council (AILC) comprising of the Secretary General, Sharfuddin Ahmad, advocate, Supreme Court and Adv. Santosh Jadhav, National Secretary visited Malegaon on January 7, 2022 to study the facts and circumstances of Malegaon which was badly hit with violence after a call for a protest on 12 November, 2021, given by the Raza Academy and other organisations. A day’s protest was called in to put the shutters down (band) against communal violence of Tripura as well as the hateful and violence-provoking speeches and actions targeting Muslims, Christians and other vulnerable sections of the society allegedly by known and indoctrinated goons.
The AILC has prepared a fact finding report after the visit and brought it to the public domain so that just, adequate and corrective measures may urgently be applied to restore the confidence of people in the administration of justice.
The press conference was addressed by former Justice of Mumbai High Court, Mr. BG Kolse Patil, National Vice President, AILC, Advocate Sharfuddin Ahmad, Secretary General, AILC and Adv. Santosh Jadhav, National Secretary, AILC, Presenting the following Report:
All India Lawyers Council (AILC) sent a delegation of lawyers to Malegaon to find out the actual facts and ground realities relating to the incidents of 12th of November, 2021 as well as the circumstances thereafter.
AILC's team in three days visit dt 7, 8 &9 of January 2022 has collected the information about the violent incidents relevant to the public importance.
The "Bandh" call for 12th of November 2021 was given by the Raza Academy and supported by almost all the social, political and religious organisations of Malegaon in view of the recurring communal, hateful and violent incidents as the governments, specially the BJP ruled states have not controlled the habitually criminal elements openly flouting the rule of law. The meetings of the visiting team in Malegaon were held with the local representatives of various organisations as well as with the leading individuals. The team of AILC also had a look at the spots of occurrences and the demography of Malegaon.
The facts emerged after wider interaction with local residents are as follows:
1) After the call of the protest by the Raza Academy, it was unanimously decided by the representatives of various organisations only to observe the protest in a form "Bandh" against lawlessness by making an appeal to shutter down the total work in the city for a day on 12th of November which happened Friday. As on Friday, the markets in Malegaon generally remain closed.
2) Only hundreds of people assembled at the crossing "Shaheedon ki Yadgar" and a Memorandum was handed over to the Official purported to be sent to the government in the morning as per prescheduled programme.
3) In view of the rising tempers and the atmosphere getting volatile, the Raza Academy had to withdraw its call and it appealed to the public to stay away from the meeting and the March. The leadership of the Raza Academy and the leaders of other organisations as Jamait e ulmae Hind, NCP, Congress, Janta Dal (S) etc thereafter, disappeared from the scene resulting to a vacuum into leadership of protesting crowd.
4) After Friday prayers, mob had gathered and started a march to Shivaji Circle, a point or the end of Muslim population. The police Officers are said to have made phone calls to a number of local leaders to intervene and to stop the march being held leaderless but according to police version, the most of the phones of the local leader who had supported the Bandh, were found switched off.
5) It is revealed that the protest had peacefully ended and the most of people had started dispersing to leave to their homes.
6) Surprisingly, Just at the end of the program, it happened instantly that a bandh of 20-25 people concealing their faces with clothes emerged from the opposite direction and shouting slogans started indiscriminate and violent attacks on properties.
7) The most of properties damaged in the violence on 12th of November 2021 are owned and possessed by Muslims. No property of any non-Muslim has been damaged during this spree of violence.
8) The attackers according to local people were unknown outsiders in hidden faces and non of them was arrested by the Police.
9) It is also informed by the local people that about two days before the declared protest, trollies full of sharp- edges stones were unloaded near the spot of the incident. and these stones were hurled and pelted on the police during the disturbance to make the police force to use force.
10) Six FIRs were registered by the local police in two Police stations and more than sixty persons are named and other one thousand to one thousand and five hundred(1000 to 1500) people have been made un-named accused persons in about half a dozen criminal cases registered by the Police.
11) The police made allegations to have been injured during stone pelting and the use of fire arms is also alleged. The injuries allegedly caused to policemen are said at the non-vital parts of bodies and hardly grevious in nature.
12) The police version is that complete footage of CCTV had been procured but no such footage is made available in public domain.
13) It is found from the perusal of FIRs that same persons are mentioned in several cases with an apparent purpose to increase the number of cases as well as to manifold the difficulties of accused persons so that they may be devoid from civil liberty for a long time.
14) It surprising that incidents had allegedly taken place at distant places but registered against the same persons without any credible evidence against them.
15) The majority of the accused persons have very clean credentials and have never been ever prosecuted in any criminal case.
16) The identification of actual offenders in view of the availability of the CCTV footage may lead the police to file the charge sheet as a large number of persons had already been arrested.
17) About two months time has passed but the police has squarely failed to file charge sheet in any case against any accused person incarcerated in the jail.
18) Indiscriminate arrests are said, to have been made including of some passers- by who had coincidently happened at the way at the time of incident and were caught by the police on the fateful day. They have all been lingering into jail without any of their own fault.
19) A reign of terror has percolated rooting to every Muslim family of Malegaon. The reports are doing the rounds that an exorbitant income has grown up in view of the apprehension to every Muslim resident for the arrest keeping in view a large number of unnamed accused persons are mentioned into FIRs lodged by the police.
20) Malegaon had unfortunately suffered with incidents of two bomb blasts in the year 2006 and 2008.A large number of innocent people were then rounded up and had gone through pangs of pain for a long time. Now extra safeguards are required so that innocent persons may not further suffer.
21) Muslims of Malegaon had unjustly been treated in past so keeping this in view, a liberal treatment be given as these persons have been in jail custody for two months and non filing of the charge sheets the police is prolonging the incarceration worsening the social atmosphere of Malegaon.
AILC FERVENTLY DEMANDS TO THE MAHARASTRA GOVERMENT TO FORTHWITH CONSIDER
A) That the expunging of names from the cases may be directed regarding all the accused persons in FIRs arrested by the police but not spotted in CCTV footage being prima facie, the innocent persons.
B) That the government may direct to the police either to release the accused persons on personal bond or not to oppose the bail applications of those who are not visible in footage of the CCTV procured by the police.
C) That the police may be directed to release the footage of CCTV to public so that the actual culprits may be identified and innocent people may not be harassed further.
D) A judicial enquiry may be ordered by the government to instil confidence, to deliver a speedy justice and to boost up the morale of the people in view of a larger interests of entire population of Malegaon.

CONSPIRACY AFOOT TO REPEAT MUZAFFARNAGAR OF 2013 AT NOOR PUR
A delegation of All India Lawyers Council (AILC) consisting of Advocate Sharfuddin Ahmad, Secretary General, Advocate Farman Ali, Mahender Singh, Amir Khan and Faizan Khan, visited Noor Pur on June 9, 2021.
Noor Pur is a village, newly designated as Town Area Tappal in Aligarh district. A Jat-dominated area having eighty percent Muslim and twenty percent Dalit population. According to Dalits, there has occurred no communal incident in the village for last four decades. The social compatibility is evident from the combined demography. Muslims had donated a piece of land and also contributed to Dalit brethren to construct an Ambedkar Dharmshala.
The village, due to Muslim population, happened a hit point for mischievous elements, operating from Tappal for creating trouble. An insignificant incident took place on May, 26 when Muslims asked to postpone the operation of loud music/DJ at the gate of a Masjid for ten minutes for Namaz-e-Asr. Verbal shots were exchanged between youths. An unidentified person damaged a side glass of the DJ vehicle. Wiser and elderly people intervened to solve the issue. After prayer, the marriage procession was resumed and two marriages were solemnised. There remained no controversy till next day when a known person followed by others from Tappal visited Dalits of Noor Pur and instigated Omprakash alias Omi to register a criminal case against Muslims. It took two days in persuasion as a section of local Dalits didn't like the idea but political pressure and ulterior motives prevailed to lodge an FIR on 28 May in Tappal Police Station naming eleven Muslims, five of whom were arrested.
In a premeditated conspiracy, a Dalit village boy was hired for writing on the walls of Dalits’ houses to demonstrate insecurity among Dalits. A concocted narrative was released to Hindi media and published in daily Amar Ujala in all its editions and other newspapers. BJP leaders from outside, including the Mayor and the MP of Aligarh, situated at distant of 85 km, started visiting Noor Pur issuing provocative and communal statements. An outsider from Aligarh, Nazm Ali, a self-claimed office-bearer of a political party, also added fuel to the fire. The ill-intentionally controversial and fake points are as follows:
(1) Horse riding of the bridegrooms were forcibly stopped by Muslims. Actually, there was no horse or horse riding on the occasion or at any event before. The whole narrative was cooked up.
(2) There are three masajid but Muslims don't allow Dalits to raise a temple in village. Actually, Dalits themselves had thwarted the move of the RSS conspirators to install Lord Hanuman idol at Ambedkar Dharmshala.
(3) Dalits are forced and lured to embrace Islam. Actually, Dalits informed that there is not an iota of truth in the allegation and there is no such complaint from any Dalit. Three years back, one Dalit, out of his free will, reverted to Islam, following due procedure and, he has been steady since then.
It was revealed from local interactions that same persons who engineered the trouble in Noor Pur are local wine mafia, creating menace of a high scale. They are deeply connected to the ruling establishment. Hundreds of persons have died in the area due to poisonous drink. The sufferers are mostly labourers. Some arrests were made to divert the heat. Noor Pur was selectively picked to engage the Administration and the Police and to brew a big trouble like that of Muzaffarnagar in 2013, generating hate and violence for failure of BJP in West UP.
Huge money has been pumped in to repeat the false narrative and to raise a Hanuman temple in the village.
There is no sign of abnormity in Noor Pur, though the PAC is camping in the Ambedkar Dharmshala. Bonds have been taken from two hundred Muslims and more than fifty Dalits to ensure peace.
The villagers appreciate the role of the Police and Administration in dealing with the situation..
AILC delegation visits residence of three Muslims...https://www.siasat.com/ailc-delegation-visits-residence-of-three-muslims-who-were-killed-by-mob-2186045/
Adharpur (Samastipur)
SDPI sent a central team led by Advocate Sharfuddin Ahmad,the and other local leaders oBihar alongwith leaders of AILC Vice President Sevvilam Parithi (Tamilnadu),Vice PresidentAdv Khwaja Javeed Yusuf( West Bengal) Adv Haider Ali(Jharkhand) Adv Santosh Jadhav (Maharashtra) Adv Amir Khan (Bihar) and Mr. Firoz Alam to study and make analysis of the aftermath and affects of the communal engineering of Sangh on the population of Muslims in District Samastipur in Bihar. In a day, three persons, one woman and two men were killed. Sarwan Yadav was shot dead before dawn at the tea stall in the village. Noboy could site the killerdue to invisibility.
There happened, as reported, a recent feud between Sarwan and Hasnain on account of the laying of public road leading in front of house of Sarwan. A day before the serial killings, Sarwan Yadav used JCB machine to forcibly remove the part of the construction of the raised road near his house that had been completed by Hasnain under the contract with government authorities. There were reportedly amicable relations between both the persons before the dispute arisen regarding the road. Hasnain is locally a well known figure and also wielded influence in the village. He is sitting Deputy Mukhia and had been elected Mukhia twice earlier.
There are only seven houses of Muslims in the locality of Adharpur mostly close relatives of Hasnain.As the news of killing of Sarwan spread, people started gathering from the village and by 10 o'clock, an huge crowd of outsiders with saffron gamchas around necks had poured in and around the spot of occurrence from all around chanting communal and provocative slogans against Muslims.
It is reported the crowd was premeditated with plan and started indiscriminate attack on all the houses of Muslims. Mrs Sanowar Khatun,45 years, the wife of Hasnain was forcibly pulled out from her house caught by hair. She was made bared of her all the clothes and nudely paraded in public. The woman was thereafter taken to an enclosure and repeatedly was sunk with her head into water. Eye witnesses reveal that her breast were cut off with sharp weapon and heavenly tortured till her death. The mob continued the violence for whole of the day without any intervention of the Police and before evening the indoctrinated goons had set to fire, looted and razed to ground all seven houses of Muslims killing a woman and man and greveously injuring a senior citizen.
Anwar,aged 30,a nephew of Hasnain was caught by the violent mob and he was also brutely done to death on the spot applying all the means of torture and indignity. The Muslm women including daughters of Hasnain, sneaked into the house of Pasi neighbour who in exceptional situations ensured their safety but the mob did not spare the infirm and aged father of Hasnain, causing him griveous and deadly injuries. The police shifted him in unconscious state to the hospital where after
several days,he could be restored to the consciousness.
The area has recently witneesed visible presence of Bajrang Dal. They hover over the streets and roads with saffron gamchas to make their presence felt and openly engineer hatred against Muslims with impunity.
SDPI had organised very huge protests against the injustice,engineered and perpetuated on sheer and collective hate against against Muslims. Three culprits have been arrested by the police but the leading among them are still not brought to book due to political pressures.
The continuing sore of pathetic incident is the family of Anwar left after the death of only bread earner for entire famiy.Deceased Anwar had left behind him an young wife Nusrat Jahan and four minor children,three daughters aged 9,7,5 and only son 3 years old.They have been given refuge to a destitute family of father in law of Anwar The family doesn't have even a permanent roof over the head.The essential articles for household or even clothes for children are still beyond the reach of the bereaved family.They urgently need compassionate aid from the community.
It is unfortunate that the Nitish government has not provided help.

AILC GUMLA, JHARKHAND VISITS THE FAMILY OF THE VICTIM OF MOB -LYNCHING, LATE SHAMIM ANSARI
All India Lawyers Council Jharkhand sent a delegation to visit Raikera Bandh Toli village, Gumla district in Jharkhand on 11 May, 2022 to collect facts of the mob-lynching of Shamim Ansari that occurred on May 6, 2022 in a forest area. The late Ansari was a known figure and had been president of a forest protection village committee formed by the Forest Ranger to help protect the Wilde life and to control forest theft.
Late Ansari was killed in a pre-planned manner by the forest mafia involved in forest crimes that considered him to be a hindrance in the execution of their illegal activities. The delegation of AILC found out that Mr Ansari had sacrificed his life to serve the public cause under the authority of Government Official, but even after his ultimate sacrifice, no visible aid was provided to the bereaved family by the Jharkhand Government.
The delegation of AILC comprised of District Office-Bearers, including the District President, Advocate Khursheed Alam and the District Secretary, Adv. Monasha Baxla who gave a memorandum to the District Authority demanding to bring the culprits to justice and to provide financial aid to the family.
AILC District Gumla pledged to extend every legal and moral assistance to the family of the victim. It is shocking that concerned citizens rendering voluntary service to their government duty are not taken care of even after the ultimate sacrifice. AILC repeats the demands made in the memorandum dated 6/5/2022 by AILC Gumla.
The Central Committee of AILC appreciates the pioneering role of its Jharkhand unit.
AILC JHARKHAND, RANCHI
On 12 June, 2022 at 10:30am, a fact finding team of AILC Jharkhand comprised of Advocate Waizur Rahman, President, Haider Ali, General Secretary and Adv. Sarfraz Alam, treasurer, rushed to the house of a victim felled day-before-yesterday and met members of the family of the deceased Shahid Ansari and Modassir Alam who were shot dead by the police and Hindu goons on 10/06/2022, while protecting for the arrest of Nupur Sharma and Nawin Jindal. It has been revealed from the statements of eye witnesses and the viral video clips that both innocent young boys were shot at directly and at point blank by the police and the Hindu goons.
Shahid Ansari’s father had already registered an FIR. The AILC team helped the father of late Modassir in drafting and lodging the FIR. The team also contacted the injured persons who were under treatment in RIMS namely: (1) Md. Sarfraz, 29 years, (2) Kaifi, 26 years, (3) Nadeem Ansari, 24 years, (4) Shahbaz Ansari, 26 years, (5) Md. Tabarak, 24 years, (6) Md. Shahil, 24 years, (7) Md. Sufiyan, 22 years, (8) Sabir Ansari, 28 years, (9) Md. Usman, 17 years, (10) Md. Tabarak, 18 years, and (11) Md. Afsar, 25 years, and assured of free legal help by the AILC from lower court to the Honourable Supreme Court for delivery of justice.
On 30 November, 2022 AILC (All India Lawyers Council) Jharkhand State Secretary Advocate Waizur Rahman, State In-charge Advocate Haider Ali, Media In-charge Advocate Syed Sheesh Alam and APCR President Advocate Razaullah Ansari at the house of the deceased Nizamuddin Ansari at Roda village in Torpa, visited and did a fact finding of the death of Nizamuddin Ansari due to Torpa police action. Our investigation revealed that the police went to the house of Nizamuddin Ansari's son Izhar Ansari on Saturday midnight to arrest him. Only women and Izhar's 82-year-old father Nizamuddin Ansari were at home. The Torpa police broke open the door and lock of the house and entered the house. There was no female police in the police party. All the police were drunk. The women were abused by the police and indulged in obscene acts.
The 82-year-old Nizamuddin Ansari was dragged from the bed by his hand, due to which his heart beat increased and he died on the spot. The police got the younger son of the deceased to write an FIR according to their own will and tried to save the culprit by registering a UD case.
The villagers are shocked by this inhuman action of the police. The villagers and the relatives of the deceased are demanding action against the guilty police station in-charge Satyajit Kumar, SI Vishwajit Thakur, SI Pritam Raj and SI MahtiBopai.
It is matter of satisfaction that the State Committee of AILC has paid a timely visit to promptly collect first-hand information regarding the death of the 82-year-old citizen, Nizamuddin Ansari at the hands of local police. The AILC shall render all the legal help to the family of the victim.
The AILC highly appreciates the endeavours of AILC Jharkhand and its state leaders.
Delhi
RAHUL KHAN MURDER
AILC demands Magisterial Enquiry into the murder of Rahul Khan
New Delhi, 23 December, 2021: A delegation of All India Lawyers Council visited the house of Rahul Khan, a 23-year-old married youth, brutally killed on 13 December in Rasoolpur village, district Palwal, Haryana on 22 December. Deadly beating by three goons continued, chanting communal words, to make explicit the cause for the fatal assault on Rahul Khan. They themselves made a video of their action that was leaked or broadcast on 16 December in social media. A named FIR was lodged by the father of the deceased.
Chiddi Khan, the father had retired in April from the post of Khalasi, a petty employee of Indian Railways. A migrant from remotely rural area, Chiddi Khan had lived throughout his life with his family in a rental house in Rasoolpur where his other in-laws were residing. His work place was nearby. Craving to have his own house, after retirement, he spent all his post-retirement funds and savings to purchase a piece of land to construct a house in Sarai Khatila, a village, 15 km from Rasoolpur. The entire family shifted to the newly-built house on 13 December, leaving behind his only son, Rahul Khan and his wife, Shahina, to join the family the next day. In the evening, Kaluwa, a friend for last two years came to meet Rahul and invited him for an outing. Rahul is said to have declined saying his wife was alone, but Kaluwa persisted Shahin to let Rahul accompany him for fifteen minutes only to meet some common friends. As it was the last day in the village, Shahina allowed Rahul Khan to leave with Kaluwa. Rahul Khan didn't come back thereafter ever.
After waiting, the local police was informed about the disappearance of Rahul Khan. Next day, the relatives came to know from Kaluwa that Rahul was injured in a road accident. A cousin, Mohammad Yusuf rushed to the house of Kaluwa, who misbehaved and threatened Yusuf. Later on, more relatives rushed to the house of Kaluwa where Rahul was found lying in a very bad shape, in a pool of blood, without any clothes, bearing grievous injuries on every organ of his body. He was shifted to the hospital by the relatives in a semi-unconscious condition. He could not sustain the injuries and died at the hospital.
A video clip was noticed on social media on 16 December where three youths Om Pal alias Kaluwa, Vishal Balmiki and Akash Prajapati alias Diljale, all the residents of Rasoolpur were seen causing grievous injuries repeatedly, chanting with every stroke that Hum Hindu Hain Aur Tum Miyan.
Rahul Khan had been taken to an isolated spot at the nearby canal and the crude violence was perpetrated by the three goons under a premeditated plan. It is a matter of investigation in what situations, a badly-injured Rahul was shifted in the dead of the night from the alleged spot of assault to the house of Kaluwa. Rahul was a mechanic but was deployed by his father to help him in construction of house.
Even after a week, no proper investigation was done. The eye witness of last seen, Shahina, the widow, has still not been approached by the Investigating Officer to record her statement under Section 161 Cr.P.C. Government officials have neither visited the bereaved family nor are any ex-gratia financial aid declared or provided. No community organisation has come to help the victimised family. The old-aged Chiddi Khan has lost the only bread earner of the family. His two daughters are married and live with their families. Chiddi Khan has no property except a meagre income from his small pension.
As usual, a counter narrative is developed after every incident in cases of targetted killings of Muslims, Dalits or Tribals, by way of caste, communal or collective violence, projecting the victim as contributor to the offence. This strategy of assassinating the character of victims is common in every case of violence against innocent people to provide a cause of abetment to the offenders and an excuse for the majoritarian violence.
Palwal district is part of the vast Mewat region spread in states of Haryana, Rajasthan and a small part of UP. The whole Mewat, till recently, was purposely kept devoid of government schemes of development. No irrigation projects, no higher educational institutions and no employment avenues, Mewat was made one of the most backward area of the country. Mewat has a sizeable Muslim population sans civic facilities. The infamity of Mewat is communally identified and fabricated issues are given unproportionate publicity. Local issues are falsely introduced to the outside world as foreign funding to build Masajid with unaccounted money. The fake issues of love jihad, the social discretabilty of the population, etc are issues of the media glare.
Mewat has borne with a number of cases of mob-lynching since BJP formed the government. The case of Rahul Khan may be the latest one but not the last one, in view of the chequered history of the area.
Amongst others there emerged following subtle and moot points in the case of Rahul Khan who was brought to the hospital alive:
1) Whether the hospital had followed the due procedure for the dying declaration in view of critical condition of the injured person.
2) Whether the offenders are affiliated to any organisation.
3) Whether the killing is caused to execute a communal agenda by indoctrinated elements and whether the offenders are politically connected.
4) Whether Kaluwa is a habitual offender having a criminal history.
5) Whether the police and the hospital has acted fairly and timely.
A Magisterial Enquiry may urgently be ordered to ensure justice to the bereaved family and also to strengthen the Rule of Law with a view to check and control the repetition of such crimes in the area.
