Verdict and Aftermath

Gujrat's Fast track court recently given its verdict which has many different implications and has a long term impact.If we say that this verdict has resulted in arrests of many muslim youth from different parts of the three different states.Though some of them were proved to be over sensitive in some issues and it is learned that they allegedly threatened some 'leaders' in past.

But if we look at the time frame chosen for the arrests we can understand the bottom line. At this juncture we cannot comment on the arrests of Muslim youth because this matter is now in the jurisdiction of different courts on Karnataka and others.

These sudden and unprecedented arrests once again threatened the whole community across the nation and civil liberties are protesting against such arrests.This time it can be noted that Well educated Muslim youth were arrested and they were tagged with 'terror' ribbon.It is up to courts whether the arrested youth are really involved in any such activity or not.But with the immediate effect all arrested youth are now aparthied in their respective societies and environs.

During the future trials the fate of the arrested youth will be declared. We should also keep in mind that many muslim youth who were arrested in past are now released and not a single allegation is proved.We hope at least this time police has not done a mistake by arresting them.We also hope that the Human rights in our largest democracy will be protected by our judicial system.Let us hope good.
