If crowds of men and children descending upon the streets with swords, blades and other shape objects, inflicting self-harm, with blood oozing out of their fresh wounds, and moving through the cities and town in full public view was not enough, there have been multiple instances of violence associated with the Muharram procession in India, making life more difficult for the “non-believers.”
Indian roads are covered with stones and brickbats, Hindu temples have been vandalized, and stones have been thrown at police and civilians, leading to severe injuries; vehicles have been torched, and the traffic situation was turned into a nightmare by anti-social elements masquerading as mourners during the Islamic occasion.
Muharram procession participants gang-rape minor girl
In one of the most unfortunate cases reported from Bihar’s Araria district, two participants of the procession, Mohammad Ashraf and Mohammad Mumtaz, gang-raped a 17-year-old girl who had come to the venue to watch the Tazia procession on the night of July 28. They abducted the minor, took her to a nearby field and sexually assaulted her until she lost consciousness. The police later recovered her with no clothes on her body. She was taken to a hospital for medical attention. When she regained consciousness, she informed the police that she was gang-raped by the accused, Mohammad Mumtaz and Mohammad Ashfaq, who repeatedly raped her during the commotion of Muharram. The police have apprehended the pair, and an FIR has been lodged against them.
Violence at Bareilly Highway
The occasion of Muharram coincides with the Hindu event of the Kanwar Yatra, and Muslims often raise objections or stop the Hindu pilgrims from conducting their processions during this time. If the latter refuse to submit, violence ensues, as happened on the Bareilly Highway near Khamaria Bridge in Pilibhit. Participants of the Muharram procession asked the Hindu pilgrims to stop their music; this eventually escalated into a fierce altercation on July 29. The Muslims began throwing stones, harassing regular commuters and targeting buses from Haridwar, a significant Hindu religious site. The windows of a bus were shattered, injuring passengers. There was also a stampede that caused injuries to many. Some reports suggest that these Muslims looted Hindu businesses while throwing stones, while in some states, the Muslim side was anchored close to the Khamaria Bridge at least three to four days ago.
Temple Attacked in Kaimur, Bihar
The gang-rape of the minor discussed above wasn’t the only disturbing news from Bihar this Muharram. As per reports, some members of the Islamic processions also attacked and vandalized a Hindu temple in Bihar’s Khaimur district. There were sloganeering and offensive chants, and the matter soon escalated from vandalism of the temple to rioting against the Hindus in the area. Though the local police were successful in controlling the havoc, this was not before the Muslim mob threw stones at police vehicles and Hindu flags. Instances of stone throwing that injured police were also reported from Gaya, Bihar.
Violence in the National Capital
Some antisocial elements partaking in the Muharram procession in West Delhi started throwing stones at the police on July 30, severely injuring at least ten police officers. The unruly crowd also exploited the mayhem to tear down shops and destroy personal property in the area. As per reports, the agitation started when the police stopped the Tazia participants from taking a route different from the one the administration had already approved. These routes must be submitted and approved beforehand but police often bow down to the ad hoc demands of the marchers. In this case, Muslims were furious when the police prohibited them from de-routing their procession. The Muslims began throwing stones at the police. The agitation was, however, brought to an end when the police began using their batons.
The Nuh Violence
One of the most distressing examples of one-sided communal violence by Muslims has been reported from the Muslim-dominated district of Nuh in Haryana, also known as “Mini Pakistan,” due to the prevalent jihad preaching in the area. A mob of such Muslims charged on a Hindu procession on July 31, which led to 2500 Hindus, including several children, seeking refuge in a nearby temple. While the Hindus were left stranded for hours until rescue teams arrived, the Muslims had set ablaze cars, police vehicles, shops and almost anything that came past them. The death toll till now is five, while 50 people have sustained severe injuries in the communal violence; cops with bullet injuries are still in critical condition.
But what remains the goriest image of the Nuh violence is the murder of Abhisekh. The Hindu youth had arrived at the Nalhad temple to offer water to his deity. Shortly after offering his prayers, Abhishek was attacked by a 250-strong Muslim mob. Members of this mob shot at him, slit his throat, and finally crushed his face with stones. Witnesses state that the ferocious mob had also chased some Hindu women in the area.
The Nuh violence soon spread to Gurgaon, Haryana, which falls within the National Capital Region. Many offices asked staff members to work from home, and schools remained closed after the violence.

islam is a wild beast and its adherents act as if they have no human consciences or consciousness. they certainly are a menace to the rest of society, as if they are like a pride of angry lions.
The poor girl should have been told to stay clear of these scum. It’s good that the perps were caught and will be dealt with; but what punishment will they receive? Enough to discourage other scum from kidnapping and raping young girls?
tim gallagher says
Surely not. This can’t be true. Those peaceful Muslims couldn’t possibly be behaving violently in this way. Even the Pope tells us that islam is basically peaceful. islam is a rotten, hate-filled load of garbage and Muslims are always violent. They have been murderously violent scum rampaging around the world for 1400 years and they will never change and turn into peaceful people. islam and its followers are the complete opposite of peaceful behaviour.

That makes the pope a “false prophet,” a lying sack, a “wolf in sheep’s clothing.”
“Can a leopard change its spots?” No, and the devout mozlum will remain true to his evil creed.
New International Version Jeremiah 13:23
“Can an Ethiopian change his skin or a leopard its spots? Neither can you do good who are accustomed to doing evil.”

Well, somehistory, the present Pope is certainly wrong on islam’s nature, but I guess plenty of slow learners see islam in the same mistaken way. The Koran, from the bits of it that I read, seems to be manual full of endless and murderous hate for all non-believers, so anyone who followed it would have a violent frame of mind, that’s for sure. I was off getting another 10 of my songs recorded by a friend of mine yesterday. It was a long drive but it sounded great. Very enjoyable.
somehistory says
Yes, Tim, there are many people clueless and in the dark. But the pope has taken a job that requires him to be enlightened and pass on that to others who don’t have his resources. He willingly took on the responsibility, but instead of helping, he hurts by lying about islam and the intent of mozlums….calling them “our brothers” and telling us how bad we are for not being welcoming, comparing them to Jesus as an infant.
I’m happy for you getting to record your songs.
tim gallagher says
Agreed, somehistory. This guy is a hopeless Pope with his pathetic lack of understanding of islam’s foul nature and the way he chooses to ignore all those murders by Muslims of Christians throughout the world, especially in African countries. He should be standing up for those persecuted and murdered Christians and calling out islam for the evil thing it is. I doubt whether I will get anywhere with my songs but it was good fun getting them recorded and they sounded good. Jeff, the guy i did the recording with is a very pleasant guy and a superb guitarist who does a bit of recording people on the side.

“Muslims are always violent”
As Robert Spencer has noted, most–simply wanting to live their lives peacefully–are not violent. Can’t be both.
Those Muslims, of course, are not following “the faith” in accordance with Qur’an, hadith, etc. While some don’t actually know what those books say, some pick and choose, and some are Muslim in name only.
This Oklahoma state representative–who publicly declared herself to be “a queer Muslim woman“–promotes the false notion in uninformed kafir minds that Islam is “progressive and liberal” religion which has been hijacked by a tiny minority of extremists. As we both know, she is certainly not a “good” Muslim.

That must be true, PRCS. I do meet apparently pleasant Muslims, but then, as I mentioned up above, when I read some parts of the Koran, I found that it was a vicious, hate-filled book that called for violence against non-believers, so i suspect that the pleasant Muslims must not take the Koran all that seriously, but the devout Muslims are bound to have a very hate-filled attitude towards all of us non-Muslims. I don’t have time for islam or Muslims. I note that here in Australia, the amount of trouble Muslims cause, compared to, say, Buddhists, Christians, etc, is enormous, so I would be happy to have none of them allowed to enter this country. Give me Buddhists, Christians or others, but ditch the Muslim troublemakers. Not worth the trouble they always bring to any place.

I was following the Nuh violence on Twitter day before yesterday. There were some 2500 people, mainly women, holed up in a temple while even the police force was inadequate to deal w/ the muslim rioters, as Ashley mentioned
One thing worth noting here is that this is happening regardless of whether the state is run by the BJP or a member of the opposition coalition that recently rebranded itself I.N.D.I.A. (Indian National Developmental Inclusive Alliance) – the latest branding of their Left parties. I am predicting that India will likely have a hung parliament next year, w/ no party able to come to power. It’ll be interesting to see how they handle things in that situation
Devasur says
Yet MSM media like bbc calling it as genocide of muslims. Can you believe it? MSM pimps will go to any lengths to protect their so called peaceful community. Ironically Indian Christians supporting this propaganda along with Indian commie Marxists.
