Bhopal, June 29 (UNI) Squarely blaming the law-enforcement establishment for the Udaipur incident, AIMIM President and Hyderabad MP Asaduddin Owaisi said on Wednesday that the gruesome murder of tailor Kanhaiyalal could have been prevented if Rajasthan Police had exercised due vigilance.
During an interaction with reporters in the Madhya Pradesh capital, the visiting politician reiterated his condemnation of the grisly homicide and averred, “There is not even a vestige of doubt that it is an act of terror. The killing was perpetrated and recorded by a couple of cruel individuals. A video went viral in social media.”
The AIMIM supremo alleged that the 2017 lynching of dairy farmer Pehlu Khan in Alwar district and the 2015 lynching of Mohd Akhlaq – near Dadri in Uttar Pradesh – also fell into the terror category.
“I learnt through media that Kanhaiyalal was receiving constant threats. In Telangana, those threatening the BJP’s erstwhile spokesperson Nupur Sharma were placed under arrest forthwith,” he added.
Mr Owaisi is in Madhya Pradesh to campaign in favour of AIMIM candidates contesting civic bodies’ polls.
