Social
activist Shabnam Hashmi on Saturday took part in the agitation
organised by the Rihai Manch, an outfit formed to struggle for release
of innocent Muslim youths allegedly implicated in false terror charges.
Rihai Manch is holding indefinite demonstration for last 18 days
demanding action against police officers responsible for arrest and
death of terror accused Khalid Mujahid. It is also demanding state
government to act on Nimesh Commission report which found discrepancies
in arrest of Mujahid and his co-accused in the 2007 serial blasts case.
Mujahid had died in police custody on May 18. After a street play by the
members of Revolutionary Cultural Front, Jawaharlal Nehru
University, on the allegedly fake Batla house encounter, Hashmi
expressed her view. She said Mujahid is just one among many innocent
Muslims who are arrested in the name of terrorism in India. "He was
murdered because he could have been a witness against the UP policemen
involved in falsely implicating innocent Muslims," she said.

British Indian Muslims express solidarity with Rihai Manch’s indefinite dharna
Council of Indian Muslims—UK (CIM) has expressed solidarity
with Rihai Manch, a movement launched for the release of innocent
detainees implicated in terror cases in India.
For the last 13 days Rihai Manch has been holding dharna (sit-in) in front of Vidhan Sabha, legislative assembly of Uttar Pradesh, against the custodial killing of Khalid Mujahid.
“We salute the brave and honest souls like Magsaysay Award winning social activist Dr Sandeep Pandey, former Director General of Police S R Darapuri and Advocate Randheer Suman, the shining stars of Indian secularism, who have led this campaign and have been exposing the ugly faces of a bunch of fascists bent upon destroying the spirit of peaceful co-existence and pluralism, an ingrained and deep rooted virtue of Indian society.” CIM’s Chairman Munaf Zeena said in a statement issued today.
“We support the demands of Rihai Manch and express solidarity with these selfless soldiers fighting to establish rule of law and justice in India.” Zeena added.
“We condemn the killing of Khalid Mujahid and unjustified detentions of Muslim youths. Unfortunately even after 65 years of independence Indian police is behaving like the soldiers of British colonialists and Muslims as rebels.” Zeena continued, “We urge the UP Government to restore community’s shaken confidence, improve its badly damaged image and accept the demands of Rihai Manch.”
Khalid Mujahid, arrested in 2007 for his alleged involvement in blasts inside a court, died in police custody on May 18, 2013 just a few days after govt moved to court to seek his release.
Questions were raised when Khalid Mujahid and Tariq Qasmi were shown arrested in 2007. Government appointed Justice RD Nimesh Kumar Commission refused to believe police version of arrest story. Copy of the leaked report is shown recommending punishing the guilty police officers. Government has so far refused to make the report public.
While there are no exact figures as how many Muslims are being detained by the police and investigative agencies, in a recent statement Mr Darapuri has presented an alarming picture. “Through investigative agencies innocent Muslim youths are being kept at a secret place and are subjected to inhuman treatment that only becomes known to the Human Rights Commission when the detainee is found dead,” he said.

Rihai Manch demands action taken on Nimesh Commission report
4 June 2013
Lucknow The state cabinet meeting chaired by CM Akhilesh
Yadav accepted the Nimesh Commission report on Tuesday. The Nimesh
commission report is related to the arresting of terror suspect Khalid
Mujahid and Tariq Qasmi in 2007. Justice R D Nimesh had submitted its
report to the state government on 31 August 2012. Both Khalid and Tariq
were accused in serial blasts which occurred in 2007.There were demands from victim's family and other social organisations to make Nimesh Commission report public. The demand intensified after the death of Khalid Mujahid in police custody on May 18 when he was returning from court appearance at Faizabad to Lucknow.
“The state cabinet has accepted the Nimesh Commission report. It will help us in taking up the case of innocent persons. Now we will table it in the state assembly along with the action taken report,” Akhilesh Yadav stated.
Rihai Manch (Forum for the Release of Innocent Muslims imprisoned in the name of Terrorism) is on indefinite dharna for 14 days now outside the UP Assembly demanding arrest of police officers involved in Khalid Mujahid's murder, issuing the RD Nimesh commission report, and the immediate release of innocent Muslim youth imprisoned in the name of terrorism.
Chairman of the Rihai Manch, Advocate Mohammad Shoaib said that the way the cabinet has half heartedly accepted the Nimesh Commission Report only reveals how government is not serious about taking actions. He pointed out that the Manch had already made public the report in March, and what they now expect is that government takes actions. He reminded that the ruling Samjwadi Party had made poll promises of taking releasing innocent Muslim youths languishing in jails for years.
Muslim clerics have welcomed the step taken by the CM Akhilesh Yadav. “It is a good step. We have been demanding it since many years that Nimesh commission report should be made public. Now the first step towards it has been taken. We will appreciate if the Action Taken Report is also presented. We hope CM Akhilesh Yadav will do it soon,” Maulana Khalid Rasheed Farangi Mahli, Imam of Aishbagh Eidgah stated.
Imam, Tile Wali Masjid, Maulana Fazlur Rehman Waizi Nadwi too welcomed the decision of the state government. “It shows that state government is sincere on its promise for releasing the innocent youths. Till date not a single commission report has been made public. Akhilesh Yadav has taken the first step. His intentions should not be doubted and Muslims should support the efforts of the state government,” he stated.
Md Farhat Miyan, the Sajjadanasheen of Dada Miyan Ki Mazar too welcomed the step by Akhilesh Yadav government. “It is good the Nimesh Commission report has been placed before the cabinet and it has been accepted. CM Akhilesh Yadav has taken bold step. I am hopeful that action taken report will also be submitted soon,” Farhat Miyan stated.
Jamiat Ulama-i-Hind General Secretary Maulana Mahmmood Madani has termed the move though late, but a good step in the right direction. “Now it is the right time to present report with its full perspective and early actions be taken against errant officials,’’ he added.
On the contrary, Bhartiya Janta Party (BJP) termed it as another appeasement act by Akhilesh Yadav government. “It was with them since August last year. It has been done now under pressure from Khalid's family members. It is a clear case of Muslim appeasement policy by the state government,” Vijay Bahadur Pathak, the state spokesperson of BJP stated.
Khalid Mujahid along with Tariq Qasmi was arrested by Special Task Force (STF) on 20 December 2007 from Barabanki. Huge explosives were also shown as recovered from his possession. STF claimed that they were Harkat-ul-Jihad-al-Islami operatives and were involved in the serial blasts which occurred in Gorakhpur, Faizabad and Lucknow.
However, under pressure from the families and civil society groups the then BSP government had constituted the RD Nimesh Commission to probe the allegations of falsely implicating them. After several extensions, the report was finally submitted in August 2012.
Although the government has not yet made the report public, on 18 March, 2013 Rihai Manch, had leaked the report, which had raised fingers over STF's claim about the place of arrest.
Khalid had died under mysterious circumstances on his way back from Faizabad near Ram Sanehi Ghat last Saturday. He was declared brought dead by the doctors at district hospital in Barabanki. Later, on the complain of his uncle Zahir Alam Falahi, a case was registered against 42 police officers including former DGP Vikram Singh, ADG Brijlal and others who were on duty during the time of Khalid's arrest.

Suing for burning Abu Asim Azmi's effigy will prove costly to the SP government - Rihai Manch
Rihai Manch's Maseehuddin Sanjari initiates relay fast on the 12th day of indefinite Dharna against SP government's tactics
Lucknow, June 2, 2013 / Rihai Manch's indefinite dharna demanding arrest of police officers involved in Khalid Mujahid's murder, issuing the RD Nimesh commission report, and the immediate release of innocent Muslim youth imprisoned in the name of terrorism, completed its twelfth day in Lucknow today.
In its statement, Manch said that the government dares not file cases against the likes of Togadiya and Varun Gandhi but is hell-bent on acting against burning the effigy of Abu Azmi. They said it reflects their anti-Muslim outlook to governance.
Abu Amir, brother of Mohammad Habib from Azamgarh, who is imprisoned in Samabarti Jail in Ahmadabad, submitted a memorandum addressed to Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav through the indefinite dharna.
Starting a kramik upwaas opposing the government's claims of natural death of Maulana Khalid and the protection of the guilty officers, Rihai Manch Azamgarh incharge, Maseehuddin Sanjari, said the government wanted to mislead the masses and the CBI by not producing all the documents needed and used SP leaders and paid ulema to protect Khalid's killers. He said the government wanted to give the issue of release of imprisoned youth a communal color and announced that the indefinite dharna would now be in the form of a kramik fast.
Condemning the lawsuit by the government for burning the effigy of Abu Azmi in Azamgarh, Manch speakers said it was a representation of the government's fear of the movement for justice for Muslims and its policies would prove costly for it in the upcoming 2014 general elections.
Rihai Manch leader and Awami Council Secretary-General Asad Hayat said the government was against their appeal against the Varun Gandhi case and termed it a proof of collective work of the communal forces in polity and the SP government. He said the fact that Asthan, Pratapgarh's Muslim homes were looted and set on fire by rioters in the presence of Praveen Togadiya but the police did not register a case under Section 153 A, 295 A of the IPC.
Different, wrongful sections were applied by Inspector Namwar Singh and Sections 147, 148, 149 were removed from case no. 95/12. Also, the reports of innocents whose houses had been destroyed weren't lodged at all, they were labeled gangsters instead.
He added that communal government's rioters involved in Faizabad, Kosi Kalan and Ambedkar Nagar were roaming free and the government had no will to indict them.
Abu Amir from Azamgarh, whose brother Mohammad Habib is imprisoned in Samabarti Jail in Ahmadabad, presented a memorandum addressed to the CM and said he had met him during the 2012 assembly elections and he'd promised to release his brother Habib if he gained political power.
He asked Akhilesh Yadav to intervene and act in the Sabarmati Jail tunnel case where 7 Azamgarh boys are under severe scrutiny and ensure the innocents' release.
Manch speakers said on the thirteenth day of the dharna Akhlaq Ahmed, Abu Bakr of Human Rights from Delhi and Indian National League president Mohammad Sulaiman. Also showing solidarity tomorrow would be the kin of Shakeel, who was abducted by state authorities under the SP regime a year ago.
Sanjarpur Sangharsh Simiti from Azamgarh and All India Backward Society Party support the dharna today.
The dharna was addressed by Raghavendra Pratap Singh, incharge of Rihai Manch Allahabad, Advocate and Rihai Manch President Md. Shoeb, Mohammed Aafaaq from Socialist Front, Magsaysay Awardee Sandeep Pandey, former MP Ilyas Azmi, Smart party president Haji Mohammed Fahim Siddiqui, Shahzaade Mansour, Tariq Shafeeq, Ram Singh Yadav from National League, Abuzar from Muslim Morcha, Secretary General of Rihai Manch and former police officer S R Darapuri, Aftab Ahmed from Muslim Forum, Maseehuddin Khan, Mohammad Hussain Khan from All India Backward Society Party, Syed Moid Ahmad, Ishaaq, Laxman Prasad, Dr. Anwarul Haque Laari, Mohammad Abrarul Siddiqi, Md.

Rihai Manch's protest continued on the eleventh day with its eleven-point demands from the government

Supressing the Nimesh comission report is deprivation of democratic rights of the people- Zafarul-Islam Khan
Addressing the dharna, President of All India Muslim Majlis e Mushawarat and editor of The Milli Gazette, Dr. Zafar-ul-Islam Khan, said that the questions being raised about terrorism all over the country has left the central and the state governments speechless and brings shame to the world's largest democracy. He said that if the SP government really intended to release innocents imprisoned in the name of terrorism, why had it not acted on the 11 demands even after 11 days of the indefinite dharna. He added that the commission was a public inquiry, paid for by the public, hence entitling the masses to see its findings which not only protects the guilty police officers but infringes on the public's democratic rights.
Tasleem Rahmani, Welfare party's national vice-president said IB's national anti-Muslim agenda in a democracy and shielding the same IB officers was reflected in the government's treatment of Khalid's murder. He said it could be understood from the government's propping of paid ulema and leaders like Abu Asim to claim that Khalid's death was due to disease.

Lucknow, June 1, 2013 / Indefinite dharna for arrest of Khalid Mujahid's killers, release of Nimesh Commission report and release of innocents imprisoned in the name terrorism completed its eleventh day today with Khalid's uncle Zaheer Alam Falahi and Tariq's relatives accusing Abu Asim Azmi and paid ulema of trying to protect Khalid's killers.
Tariq Qasmi's uncle, Hafiz Fayyaz said that he'd refused to accompany Abu Asim Azmi to meet Tariq in jail, that is when he contacted Tariq's father-in-law, who also refused. Abu Asim Azmi's men forcefully took away Hafiz Fayyaz's brother, Mumtaz at 1.30 in the night. He said that leaders like
Abu Asim Azmi were misleading the Muslim masses, and that if the government really wants to make amends, they should refrain from using leaders like Abu Asim Azmi as pawns and start a CBI enquiry into Khalid's murder and release the Nimesh report. Tariq's father-in-law and Khalid's cousin attended the dharna.

Abu Amir, brother of Mohammad Habib from Azamgarh, who is imprisoned in Samabarti Jail in Ahmadabad, said that the government had been indecisive in its statements and dozens of Muslims, including 7 from Azamgarh had been accused of trying to make a tunnel from the jail using pens, plates and spoons. The length has been varying from 20 to 220 meters in various official statements but the state government which had promised every possible assistance to the falsely implicated youth has been mum on this serious incident of custodial death.

After the so-called Ulema, now Abu Azam Azmi is being used to mislead the public - Rihai Manch
Rihai Manch was supported by Association of Indian Muslims of America on the tenth day of its dharna against injustice for Khalid Mujahid and its demand for arrest of guilty police officers and IB officials.
On its eleventh day tomorrow the dharna will be attended by Zaheer Alam Falahi, Maulana Khalid's uncle and Tariq-Khalid's family and relatives.
Lucknow, May 31, 2013 /
Continuing its demand for release of innocents imprisoned illegally and justice for Maulana Khalid, Rihai Manch's indefinite dharna completed its 10th day. Manch said the attempted cover-up using various fake ulema working against the spirit of Islam and Muslim SP leaders, who label Khalid's murder as mere death from natural causes shows that not only is the IB and police involved by the government is the murder and was trying to wash its hands off the matter by influencing the investigation.
Mohd Aafaaq from Socialist Front burnt the effigy of Abu Asim Azmi and said his claims of Khalid's death from disease is a betrayal to the Muslim society which will not be forgiven.
The spokespersons for Rihai Manch said that even the Association of Indian Muslims of America has expressed support for the movement for justice for Maulana Khalid in a letter written to Rihai Manch.
The dharna will be attended by Zaheer Alam Falahi, Maulana Khalid's uncle and Tariq-Khalid's family and relatives on its eleventh day tomorrow Zafar-ul-Islam Khan, editor of the Milli Gazette chairman of the All India Muslim Majlis e Mushawarat will show his support tomorrow.
Addressing the protesters former MP Ilyas Azmi said Abu Asim Azmi's remarks were irresponsible and a part of condemnable dirty politics. Ilyas Azmi said that Azamgarh which has been defamed by IB as a terrorism hub, is a sensitive topic and any person passing comments/judgment should ponder over its implications and not play politics about it.
Azmi said that the lie told about Khalid's death was so grave that no local Muslim leader was ready so say it hence SP had to fly Abu Azmi from Mumbai to say it, two weeks after Khalid's death.
President of Rihai Manch and Khalid-Tariq's lawyer Mohammed Shoeb said that Abu Asim Azmi, in a bid to bail out the government went to meet Tariq in jail but failed to meet Khalid's family, the same thing SP's 'paid ulema' were doing a few days ago, and Khalid's uncles refusal to accept the compensation was a fitting gesture for that. He said that even the Justice RD Nimesh report absolves Khalid-Tariq of all indictments and Abu Azmi should refrain from stooping so low in the name of politics.
He said that the government that keeps innocents locked up 23 hours in a day in the name of high-security wants to reduce these spirited young men to listless souls.
