Fraternity Movement National President Shamsheer Ibrahim, National Secretary Abu Talha Abdal, Sharjeel Usmani and National Executive Committee member Afreen Fatima were detained in Mandir Marg police station while leading a protest rally against killings of Muslims in Assam from Delhi Assam Bhawan.
Fraternity Movement of India condemned the killings of Muslims and police brutality committed at Dholpur Gorukhuti in Sipajhar of Assam’s Darrang district.
Two people were killed and several injured in police firing during a forceful eviction drive in Assam’s Darrang district on Thursday. One horrific video from the place shows a man shot in the chest and lynched by a group of policemen. A photojournalist filming the clash is seen trampling the man, even as he is lying motionless on the ground.
The horrific incident is the latest instalment of the Assam government’s drive to root out, mostly Muslims of Bengali origin, accusing them of encroaching on government land.
Abu Jafar Molla, National General Secretary of Fraternity Movement said that the horrific visuals of the forced eviction of the Muslim minorities living there for the past 20 years show the barbarity and heartlessness of the BJP government and its police forces.
Molla termed the incident of eviction of the Muslim minorities as a state-sponsored terror activity and an attempt of ethnic cleansing.
Criticizing the role of the media he said, “the media is not fulfilling its duty rather it is peddling hatred by projecting the people who are subjected to forced-eviction and oppression as illegal settlers while the truth is they are Indian nationals who have no lands of their own to dwell upon like many other Indian nationals living on govt. Lands in all over the country.”
The student activists were released around 5.30 pm.
