Lucknow: Blaming the Samajwadi Party (SP) government over violent protest by Muslims in many parts of Uttar Pradesh, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) today stated that the state government is unable to take appropriate action against trouble makers owing to “electoral considerations”.

Muslims have been protesting against some blasphemous statements made by a Hindu Mahasabha leader Kamlesh Tiwari.

There has been violence in the state including Kanpur, Lucknow and Bareilly, during the protests and so far no major arrests have been made, BJP state spokesman Vijay Bahadur Pathak said.

While the National Security Act (NSA) has been slapped on Tiwari and he is in jail, police was not acting against scores of Muslims who were openly and publicly breaking law, Pathak said.

“The government neither has the will nor the authority to act against such lumpen elements as it will hurt their vote bank,” said the BJP leader.

Pathak suggested the government to order the police to find from CCTV footage who were the people behind such violence, and act against them without any bias or prejudice.

He said the “state cannot be subjected to a pick and choose policy in containing crime and maintaining law and order.”

Following urban development minister and senior SP leader Mohd Azam Khan’s statement that all Rashtriya Swayamsewak Sangh (RSS) leaders and members were homosexuals and hence talking to revoke Section 377 of the IPC, Kamlesh Tiwari had made similar comments about prophet Mohammed.

This has incensed Muslims and they have been holding protests in various cities of the state.

BJP leaders allege that SP was playing politics in the issue that the matter drags on for some more time as it would allow SP government an opportunity to claim to be champions of Muslims.

The court, generally, considers a person who commit a crime and the one who destroys the evidence, as criminals in the eyes of law. But what if an animal destroys the evidence of a crime committed by a human.

In a peculiar incident in Rajasthan, a monkey fled away with the evidence collected by the police in a murder case. The stolen evidence included the murder weapon (a blood-stained knife).

The incident came to light when the police appeared before the court and they had to provide the evidence in the hearing.

The hearing was about the crime which took place in September 2016, in which a person named Shashikant Sharma died at a primary health center under Chandwaji police station. After the body was found, the deceased’s relatives blocked the Jaipur-Delhi highway, demanding an inquiry into the matter.

Following the investigation, the police had arrested Rahul Kandera and Mohanlal Kandera, residents of Chandwaji in relation to the murder. But, when the time came to produce the evidence related to the case, it was found that the police had no evidence with them because a monkey had stolen it from them.

In the court, the police said that the knife, which was the primary evidence, was also taken by the monkey. The cops informed that the evidence of the case was kept in a bag, which was being taken to the court.

The evidence bag contained the knife and 15 other important evidences. However, due to the lack of space in the malkhana, a bag full of evidence was kept under a tree, which led to the incident.
