Arunachal MLA's son killed in racist assault

Posted by Unknown Rabu, 05 Februari 2014 0 komentar

A first-year student of a private university in Punjab, son of an Arunachal Pradesh MLA, died after being severely assaulted by a mob in Lajpat Nagar on Wednesday. The attack was provoked by the student's protest against a racial taunt and, by all accounts, those who witnessed the shameful incident didn't care to intervene.

The 19-year-old student, Nido Tania, wasn't expecting the assault since he had paid off a shop-owner whose glass counter he had smashed in a fit of rage. But once the cops had left, he was beaten up brutally and died at a friend's place in his sleep. (The pic shows the shop where Nido Taniam was allegedly beaten by a group of men)

Tania's father, Nido Parimal, is an MLA from Raga constituency in Arunachal Pradesh. The police have registered a case of murder under section 302 of IPC and are probing the matter. A magisterial inquiry has been ordered.

Joint commissioner of police Robin Hibu has been roped in to help in the probe. "We have detained three persons and are questioning them. Apart from a case of murder, we have also added sections of the law relating to prevention of atrocities against SCs and STs in the FIR," Hibu told TOI. He added that further action will be taken based on the postmortem report.

According to AIIMS sources, the initial findings of the autopsy indicate that internal injuries may have caused the death though this is not conclusive. Viscera samples have been sent for further toxicology examination.

The incident has once again highlighted how despite some lip-service, Delhi Police personnel have not been sensitized to problems that may arise from racial prejudices and stereotyping. Tania should have been escorted to safety and not left among people whom he had antagonized and who had already turned violent.
