Ghaziabad (UP) – On Friday (24th November), a Maulavi was arrested in Uttar Pradesh’s Ghaziabad for coercing a Hindu woman to convert to Islam under the pretext of getting rid of evil powers and ghosts.
The arrested Islamic cleric has been identified as Sarfaraz. As per reports, the accused confessed to coercing non-Muslims into converting to Islam. The accused Maulavi was arrested after the 45-year-old victim’s son Akshay Srivastava lodged a complaint against Maulavi Sarfaraz at the Nandgram Police Station.
According to the complainant, his mother removed Idols and portraits of Hindu Deities from her home at the 36-year-old Maulavi’s instructions and even pressured her children and other family members to convert to Islam. They followed Islamic rituals for 4 years but now wish to return back to Hinduism.
