Muslim husband and his family accused of killing his Hindu wife Sarita

Another case of love jihad has come to light in Uttar Pradesh’s Sitapur !

Lucknow (Uttar Pradesh) – Sarita Upakhya Saida, a young woman, died on 3rd December in Macharehta of Sitapur district. The victim’s parents and local Hindutva organisations have alleged that “It is clear that this is a case of love jihad and she has succumbed to it.” Her father has made a video on  the matter and is circulating it across various platforms. In this video, the father can be heard saying, ‘My daughter was killed by her husband Yunus and his family.’ He has also lodged a complaint with the Police. The Police, however claim that Sarita’s death was due to her mental illness. So far a crime has not been registered and no arrests have been made in this case.

Sarita’s father alleged that Yunus kidnapped Sarita 2 years ago after giving her something to eat. He then made pornographic videos of her and used them to blackmail her. After this, he forcibly married her and made her abort her child when she got pregnant.

Editorial viewpoint

If there is any truth in these allegations, then merely passing a law against the menace of love jihad troubling Hindus is of no use. Hindus strongly feel that it is mandatory to take strict measures against it !
