Being Muslims made it simple for the UP government to implicate Atikur Rahman and those jailed along with him in a terror plot. Islamophobia is used by the government to harm innocent Muslims. #UPConspiracyInHathras#ReleaseAllPoliticalPrisoners
It is clear from the case information and the accusations made against Kappan that he is an innocent journalist whose work the UP Police does not like.
Atikur Rahman & other co-accused were charged by the UP police with sedition, engaging in criminal conspiracy, and supporting terrorism. Even after 2 years, all are still unproven. #UPConspiracyInHathras#ReleaseAllPoliticalPrisoners
In order to combat the fabricated case against Siddique Kappan, the Kerala Union of Working Journalists (KUWJ) defied all threats and false propaganda. Salute to KUWJ. #UPConspiracyInHathras#ReleaseAllPoliticalPrisoners
There was no proof that Atikur Rahman & co-accused were guilty. But he and other inmates spend years behind bars. It was made possible by UAPA. UAPA is a tool for state vendetta. #UPConspiracyInHathras#ReleaseAllPoliticalPrisoners
Police claims are ridiculous. Why would anyone use Black Lives Matter pamphlets to create caste conflicts in UP? This is the perfect illustration of a bogus case. #UPConspiracyInHathras#ReleaseAllPoliticalPrisoners
Indian journalist Siddique Kappan has been imprisoned for two years for carrying out his duty. Even after SC bail, he is unable to come out due to other fake cases charged against him. Why is justice in our nation becoming so scarce in our country?
Hathras conspiracy case is a clever use of Islamophobia by Uttar Pradesh police to frame innocent Muslims. It is possible because there is good percentage of population willing to believe any absurd story if it is against Muslims. #UPConspiracyInHathras
A 19 year old girl was gangraped and murdered in Hathras. Atikur Rahman & others arrested with him did not do it. They just tried to visit the victimsβ family to console them. Since when is it a crime? #UPConspiracyInHathras
Delayed justice is denied justice. We have to act now to save the life of Atikur Rahman. We have to act now to save the future of Masood Khan and Rauf Shareef. #UPConspiracyInHathras#ReleaseAllPoliticalPrisoners
In the same Hathras case that Siddique Kappan got bail because of lack of evidence, there are other innocents still languishing in jail. Free all innocents. #UPConspiracyInHathras#ReleaseAllPoliticalPrisoners
