vikramjitNew Delhi:  Five young men were arrested on Wednesday for attacking three madrassa students last week after they allegedly refused to say “Jai Mata”, police said.

Ashu, Karamvir, Sachin, Sagar and Aditya, all in their 20s and residents of Begumpur in south Delhi, were arrested from their residences, Deputy Commissioner of Police Vikramjit Singh told IANS.

The officer said madrasa student Dilkash, 18, and his two classmates — Ajmal and Naeem — alleged that they were attacked in a park on March 26 when they refused to say “Jai Mata Ki”.

Dilkash, who suffered a broken arm following the attack, told police that he and his friends were walking in a park when they were attacked.

Vikramjit Singh said the victims, who are from Bihar’s Purnia district, came to Delhi last year to study at the Faiz-ul-uloom Ghausia madrassa in Begumpur.

The three managed to escape after a few minutes of the attack and ran to their seminary. The police were then alerted.

The officer told IANS that the arrested youths had been charged with causing grievous hurt and wrongful restraint. He said the victims were known to the accused.

“The arrested youths have denied the allegations made by the victims, saying they were playing cricket in the park when the ball hit one of the madrassa students who used abusive language, leading to a scuffle,” Singh said.

“The culprits accepted that they beat up the madrassa students and attacked one of them with a bat. But they denied they forced the victims to say ‘Jai Mata Ki’,” the officer added.

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.
