Alleged Targeted Crackdown on Muslims

A recent report by the Association for Protection of Civil Rights (APCR) raises concerns about disproportionate police action against Muslims in Bareilly, Uttar Pradesh.

Following a peaceful "I Love Muhammad" demonstration led by Muslim scholar Maulana Tauqeer Raza Khan, over 4,000 Muslims were booked and 200 arrested.

The protest aimed to submit a memorandum to local authorities and was entirely peaceful, with no slogans, vandalism, or violence.

The fact-finding report alleges widespread human rights violations, including arbitrary arrests, excessive force, and property seizures without due legal process.
