18 February, 2024
Case Summary
A minor girl's body was found in Kerala, where a karate teacher named Siddiqui Ali was accused of sexually exploiting a student. The girl had been attending the teacher for three years. Siddiqui, who is 43 years old, was arrested by the police. The victim's family alleged that the girl had not committed suicide but was murdered. The victim's family believes that the girl was determined to fight the case, as she had been sexually abused for a long time. The victim's sisters claimed that he had exploited more children and two POCSO cases were already registered against him. The victim's sister reported Siddiqui Ali sexually assaulting her on September 15, 2023, and that he had been doing this for three years. The girl stopped attending school due to the abuse, despite her good marks in class 10th. The family believes that Siddiqui Ali had exploited more children and that the girl was determined to fight this case.
Why it is Hate Crime ?
In this case, it is evident that the accused had a pattern of targeting children. This could indicate that the perpetrator was grooming children for exploitation. There is a precedent that Muslim perpetrators often target Hindu children for grooming. However, there is no statement on record to indicate that the children being targeted were specifically Hindus and that the perpetrator was targeting them owing to their religious identity. This is why this case is being categorised as 'undecided'. If more information emerges, it will be added to the hate crime database.
