Junagadh: Being Muslim became a crime in India. The police lashed those protesting against the desecration of the mosque.
According to the Indian media, in the city of Junagadh in the state of Gujarat, the local administration tried to kill the mosque by calling it encroachment. When the local Muslims protested against the desecration of the mosque, the police swung into action.
Indian police officers who turned a blind eye to mob violence on Muslims tied 7 Muslim youths in front of the main gate of the mosque and flogged them. Meanwhile, people were watching the spectacle and making videos.
The video of flogging of Muslim youths went viral on social media, but no action was taken against the policemen who flogged them.
