An Indian court sentenced 10 people to 10 years in prison for the murder of Muslim youth Tabriz Ansari by Hindu extremists.
According to Indian media from Ranchi, the district court of Jharkhand state has sentenced him for the crime of criminal murder.
According to Indian media, culpable homicide under Section 304 of the Indian Penal Code is not equal to murder.
On the other hand, the news agency says that Tabriz Ansari’s family has expressed dissatisfaction over the insufficient punishment of the killers.
Shaista, the widow of the deceased Tabrez Ansari, said in this regard that we will approach the higher courts for justice due to the insufficient punishment of the criminals.
24-year-old Tabriz Ansari was tortured to death by a mob of Hindu extremists in June 2019.
According to the news agency, Hindu extremists tied Tabriz Ansari to a pole and tortured him for 12 hours.
During the violence, the extremists also forced the Muslim youth to shout Jaishree Ram slogans.
According to the news agency, the video of Hindu extremists torturing Tabriz Ansari went viral.
The news agency said that Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi is being criticized for not speaking against religious violence.
The news agency said that according to human rights organizations, the Hindu mob has been emboldened since the Modi government came to power.
