Faridabad: In another incident of cow vigilantism, five persons were beaten by the cow vigilantes in Faridabad, a few kilometers away from the national capital of Delhi on suspicion carrying beef.
The Faridabad Police, however, filed a case against the victims under the Cow Smuggling Act. The district police chief said, “We will test the meat.”
A senior police official in the district, said that the case will be registered against the victims’ grievances.
On Friday, the crowd surrounded the auto rickshaw driver and suspected four people to take beef, beaten up them. They asked the driver to chant ‘Bharat Mata Ki Jai’ and ‘Jai Hanuman’. When the driver refused, he was brutally beaten.
A few days later in the attack, the Supreme Court has sought a compliance report from the states on the issue of the cow vigilantism.
In the address of his Dussehra, RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat stormed the violence in the name of cow vigilantism. They said, “It is a blasphemy that some people have been killed allegedly by gaurakshaks.” Bhagwat said that adhering to cow is not a matter of religion. They said, “I know that many Muslims are involved in the upbringing and conservation of cows.”
He said, “We should look at the issue of cow protection beyond religion. That, Many Muslims have sacrificed their lives in gauraksha – the safety of the cow as the people of Bajrang Dal.”
