NHRC notice to Bihar government over lynching of 'kidnappers'
Patna : The National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) has taken suo motu cognizance of media reports on lynching of three suspected kidnappers in Begusarai district of Bihar on September 7, 2018.
The Commission has issued notices to the Chief Secretary and the Director General of Police, government of Bihar, asking them to look into these type of matters personally and take effective measures to stop them.
The three lynched persons were believed to be searching for a school girl with a motive to kidnap her when the mob attacked and killed them.
A "factual report" on the incident, including action taken against the guilty and measures taken to stop recurrence of such incidents, has been called from them within six weeks.
The Commission has pointed out that even in case of suspicion, a call should have been made to the police authorities and the school administration could have come forward and acted in a lawful manner.
It appears that instead of taking recourse to a lawful action, people gathered only on the basis of suspicion and without any inquiry killed three persons.

Belagavi SP denies rumours of RSS attack on Colonel Sofia Qureshi's husband’s house
Belagavi: A social media post claiming that members of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) attacked the residence of Colonel Sofia Qureshi’s husband in Konnur village, Gokak taluk, has been termed false by Belagavi Superintendent of Police Bhimashankar Guled.
The post, shared from an X (formerly Twitter) account named Anees Uddin, quickly went viral online. However, SP Guled clarified that the claim about an RSS-led attack on the residence of Colonel Qureshi's father-in-law is entirely baseless.
SP Guled urged the public not to fall for such misinformation being spread on social media. He added that adequate police protection has been provided to the house in Konnur following the viral rumours.
Gokak Circle Police Inspector Suresh R.B. visited the spot and conducted an inspection to ensure peace in the area.
