Hindu boy murdered by Muslims; and now his memorial vandalised

Incident in Shivamogga (Karnataka)

Shivamogga (Karnataka) – On the night of 23 February 2026, a Hindu boy named Sanketh was murdered by Muslims while returning from tuition classes. Now it has come to light that radical Muslims have also vandalised the memorial built by his family.

1. Sanketh was cremated at a cremation ground near Guddemaradi Temple in Uragadur. His parents had built a small memorial there with his photograph. The family used to visit every Wednesday to offer prayers at his memorial.

2. On 1st April, it was noticed that miscreants had broken the granite slab bearing Sanket’s photograph. His father, Kumar, has filed a complaint at the local police station.

3. Kumar said, “Even after my son’s death, they did not spare his grave. Since this incident, no one in our family has been able to eat properly.”

4. Expressing anger over the vandalism, Sanketh’s grandfather asked, “Do such incidents of breaking graves happen anywhere in the country ? Why do they commit such acts ? What harm have we done to them ?

5. The family has demanded justice from the Chief Minister Siddaramiyya.

Locals say that they are scared to come out at night

“After the murder of Sanketh, the number of marijuana addicts has  increased in Shivamogga city. The negligence of the police is responsible for this incident. At night, people are scared to step out of their homes,” alleged the residents.

Editorial Perspectives

• Is Shivamogga in India or in Bangladesh? It must not be forgotten that States governed by the Congress are like Bangladesh for Hindus.
• This is an example of Hindu hatred among Muslims. Those fanatics who can commit atrocities even on the bodies of deceased women, it is not surprising that they indulge in such inhuman acts.
