Victimising and Compensating

In many cases, some police and government official false fully involve the innocent people and their lives become a tragic story of victimisation.Generally it happens when some 'promotion seeking' and inefficient police and intelligence officials try to show their 'ability' in solving problems. In case of Macca masjid blast case happened the same.On May 18, 2007 the blast occurred at Makka masjid of hyderabad. At least five people died due to the powerful explosion during the friday prayer and few injured. The muslims who were panicked due to the blast came outside shouting only to face the police firing.In that time of chaos the police officers deployed near makka masjid opene fire.In police firing many innocent people died and police targeted the people who were trying to shift the injured in the firing.That was the very brutal and real face of the police who want to 'quell' the 'mob'.

These were the happenings of the bomb and its immediate aftermath.But later begins the real show of police and intelligence officials.Police on the next day claimed to have traced the bombers and announced the name of 'shahid bilal'. Who is he nobody know till now.Police arrested as many as hundred Muslim youth from city accusing them of having planned for blast.How in-logical!

Can a person blast his worshipping cite and his fellow brothers?But police accused Muslim youth for the blast. Later it was proved that the bomb was carried out by some actual 'terror' groups of Sangh.Swami aseemanand was arrested from Haridwar. Later he confessed to his crime and other terror activities across the nation. He also told the court in Hyderabad and Haryana that in majority of terror activities sangh groups are involved.


During these four years the falsely accused Muslim youth incarcerated and tortured to accept their 'crime'. Their studies, career and social life was scrapped.But after a long time torture and abuse of police, the day comes when they were released and all the charges levelled against them proved false in the court of law.State government, which was acting like a silent spectator , now came forward to give the compensation to the innocent Muslim youth.
The NGO's from city who were supporting the freed victims of police,earlier demanded to government that compensation to innocent Muslims should be given from the salaries of police personnel who made them accused and tortured.But ironically the compensation to victims was given from the funds of Waqf.How surprising once again!..

Government earlier assured to give the character certificate to the victims but at the eleventh hour changed its mind and no such certificate was given.
Interestingly many of the invitee state ministers were not present in the ceremony for the distribution of compensation.
But can we consider it a compensation? Many muslim students were dragged in the false cases and their careers spoiled.The educated young muslims were tagged with a 'terrorist'.Unfortunately when police was announcing the names of these victims as prime accused the regional media was creating a hype and it was not missing a singly update.But when the victims were freed and given compensation the 'media' was silent.

In the name of some muslim names the whole community was targeted at mass level.Isn't it?Yes I as a member of muslim community can feel that pain and it is the feeling of every muslim youngster.
