Dadri Beef Killing

A group of men accused of beating a Muslim man to death in 2015 over beef rumours in Uttar Pradesh's Dadri had front row seats at a rally on Sunday of Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, who was campaigning for the national election starting April 11.

Power conglomerate National Thermal Power Corporation today denied reports that it has offered jobs to men accused of killing Mohammed Akhlaq -- the 52-year-old man from Dadri's Bisada village, who had been lynched after rumours of beef consumption two years ago.

After visiting the Bisara village in Dadri, where Mohammed Akhlaq was killed last year by a mob that accused him of killing a cow and eating beef, union minister Mahesh Sharma tweeted "Met the family of deceased Ravi in Bisara village, Greater Noida. Bisara get settled now."

Dadri in Uttar Pradesh is tense again as the family of a 22-year-old murder accused refuses to cremate his body till they are given one crore in compensation and action is taken against the jailer at the prison where he was lodged. Ravi Sisodia's family alleges he was murdered.

Police have filed an FIR or First Information Report against the family of Mohammad Akhlaq, who was lynched by a mob over suspicion of having eaten beef, a day after the court asked for charges filed against them for allegedly slaughtering a calf.

Nearly a year after 50-year-old Mohammad Akhlaq was dragged out of his home and killed by a mob of at least 100 in Uttar Pradesh's Dadri over rumours that he had stored beef, his family faces criminal charges.

The Dadri case - in which 52-year-old Mohammad Akhlaq was lynched in September last year -- saw a new twist today, with the families of the accused filing an appeal in court. The plea said a police case be filed against Mr Akhlaq's family since they had slaughtered a calf, which is illegal in the state.

Ignoring police orders, a group of BJP and Shiv Sena politicians led a village meeting or panchayat demanding action against the family of Mohammed Akhlaq, who was lynched to death in September over accusations that his family was eating beef in their home.

On September 28, Mohammad Akhlaq was killed by a mob in Uttar Pradesh's Dadri over rumours that he had beef in his house.

Samajwadi Party (SP) chief Mulayam Singh Yadav today said he did not become the chief minister of Uttar Pradesh after his party got absolute majority in 2012 so that he could spend more time with party workers and keep a tab on the working of the government.

The main accused in the mob lynching of a Muslim man in Uttar Pradesh's Dadri have admitted that they were "provoked by rumours of cow killing", reveals a police charge-sheet. The police, however, have not mentioned the word "beef" in their charges.

Three months after the mob lynching of a Muslim man in Uttar Pradesh's Dadri over rumours that he had stored beef, 15 people including the son of a BJP politician have been named in the police charge-sheet.

The family of Mohd Akhlaq, the man who was brutally killed in a mob attack over rumours of beef eating, today told Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav that they do not want the probe into his death to continue further and expressed satisfaction over the action taken in the case.

The central government is awaiting a report on the Dadri mob killing incident it had sought from the Akhilesh Yadav dispensation in Uttar Pradesh to ascertain factual position and action taken by the state, Lok Sabha was informed today.

The hearing in a case against BJP legislator Sangeet Som and others for allegedly blocking roads in Uttar Pradesh's Muzaffarnagar district during a protest in 2009 has been adjourned till December 22.
