Case Summary

In Hoskote, Karnataka, a Hindu organisation led by Puneeth Kerehalli raided a slaughterhouse, where they rescued 6 cows. The organisation found that 8 cows were already slaughtered there. Police reached the spot and seized the beef but the suspects had already fled from the spot.

Why it is Hate Crime ?

The cow is considered sacred in the Hindu religion. Often, cows are slaughtered by non-Hindu perpetrators as a mark of insult to the Hindu faith. There have been several documented cases throughout history where cow slaughter is used as a method to insult the Hindu faith, convert Hindus (by force-feeding beef) and desecrate temples. In all cases of cow slaughter, there is a suspicion of religious animosity against Hindus working as a motivating factor, however, in the absence of any concrete indication, this case is being categorised as 'Undecided'. If more details emerge, it would be added to the hate crime database.
