A.I.M. APPEALS TO CHIEF MINISTER MULAYAM SINGH TO CURB ANTI - MUSLIM
VIOLENCE IN MAU
Washington DC, October 16, 2005.
In the last few days a Hindu-Muslim communal riot occurred in the town of Mau in eastern Uttar Pradesh. <b>The riot occurred when a group of violent Hindus attacked a mosque where congregational prayers were being held after Muslims broke their day-long fast. The marauders threw missiles, trash and dirt inside the mosque and disturbed the prayer by playing loud music and making loud noises. That resulted in a scuffle between groups of Hindus and Muslims outside the mosque. Subsequently a large number of shops of Muslim residents were set on fire</b>. The local units of the U.P. Provincial Armed Constabulary (PAC) used excessive force against the Muslim population resulting in injuries to many Muslims, but did not take action against the violent Hindu mob.. It is reported that as of now seven people have been killed in this communal conflagration in Mau city and district.
The Association of Indian Muslims of America (AIM) appeals to Mulayam Singh Yadav, chief minister of Uttar Pradesh to immediately replace the PAC units who are known to have anti-Muslim bias, with adequate number of armed police units from outside the district. We appeal to Mr Mulayam Singh to immediately post a Deputy Director General of Police in Mau with adequate police strength and with orders to immediately control the violent situation and restore order. We appeal to Mr Mulayam Singh to pay adequate financial compensation to the victims of the violence, and to conduct a through enquiry with a view to bring the guilty marauders to justice.
