Fraternity JMI strongly condemn the killing of three Muslim youths in Sambhal during police firing on a Muslim group resisting the survey of the Shahi Jama Masjid. The group was protesting against the visit of a court-appointed survey team to the mosque for the second time, following allegations by Hindutva groups that a temple was demolished to construct the mosque during the Mughal era.
This incident aligns with a pattern of targeting religious minorities and their places of worship, reminiscent of the Babri Masjid case, the Gyanvapi Masjid in Varanasi, and the Shahi Masjid in Mathura.
We demand immediate justice for the victims' families and accountability for those responsible. Fraternity JMI condemns the state-sponsored targeting of minorities and holds the authorities accountable for enabling such actions.
