Minor Hindu girl lured into hotel by Muslim man
Case Summary
In Chhibramau, Kannauj, Uttar Pradesh, police detained a Hindu minor girl and a Muslim youth at a hotel on Saurikh Road after they were suspected of engaging in inappropriate activities. The hotel manager became suspicious and informed the police, who arrived at the scene and questioned the couple. Upon realising that the matter involved individuals from different religious communities, the police took them to the police station for further investigation. After being informed, members of a Hindu organisation reached the police station and demanded action against the accused. Following legal procedures, the police handed over the minor girl to her family while keeping the Muslim youth in custody. The police assured that legal action was being taken against him.
Why it is Hate Crime ?
While it is important to acknowledge that the victim in this case is a minor, making any supposed "consent" legally invalid under the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act, the criteria for inclusion in the hate crime database require a distinct religious motive behind the grooming. In cases where an adult from another religion coerces, manipulates, or deceives a minor into a relationship with the intent of religious conversion, it would be classified as a hate crime. However, in this instance, there is no concrete evidence suggesting that the Muslim youth targeted the Hindu minor girl specifically for religious reasons or attempted to convert her. Without this crucial element, the case, though legally significant and punishable under POCSO, does not meet the specific threshold for categorisation as a religiously motivated hate crime. Upon emergence of further relevant details, the case will be shifted from the Undecided category to our Hate Crime database.
