Ahmedabad: Amidst the protests by Muslims against France over Macron government’s strong stand to fight radical Islam after the latest incident of ‘blasphemy’ beheading in France, some people from Muslim community in Juhapura area of Ahmedabad pasted French President Emmanuel Macron’s posters on public road to be trampled upon on November 1. Vejalpur Police has now booked 7 persons including Congress Councillor of Amdavad Municipal Corporation, Hajibhai allegedly responsible for this.

As per a complaint filed by surveillance squad head constable Jogabhai Karmanbhai, on 1st of November, during 12 noon to 12.30 pm some persons pasted around 150 stickers depicting French President’s picture with print of shoes over his face, on public road in attempt to provoke religious sentiments of Muslims and create anarchy.

A complaint draft stated that when investigated privately by Police, Yunus Sabarhussain Kadri (50), Najmaben wife of Karim Muzaffarbhai Kureshi(46), Mohammad Yunus(54), Musakim Abdulkadar Master(36), Haji Asrarbaig Abdulshakur Mirza(59), Mohammadsalim Hussain Sheikh(45) and Abdulhamid Mohammadhanif Sheikh(48) along with a printing press owner and 10-15 other people were found to have conspired and executed it. Vejalpur Police has booked the accused under sections 188, 269, 270, 120BB), damage to public property act section 3 and 4, the disaster management section 54 and the press and registration of book act section 3.

India has come out strongly in support of France after French President Emmanuel Macron declared war against radical Islamic terrorism following the beheading of a teacher by a Muslim immigrant terrorist two weeks ago. In an official statement on Wednesday, the Ministry of External Affairs said that it “strongly deplores the personal attacks in unacceptable language on President Emmanuel Macron in violation of the most basic standards of international discourse”.

Contrary to a stand taken by India, sections of Muslims have at few places protested recently against the alleged ‘Islamophobia’ of French President.
