Mumbai Saad Ashfaq Ansari, a youth from Mumbai, came down heavily on Saad Ashfaq Ansari, a former BJP spokesperson Nupur Sharma, who had allegedly made controversial remarks on the Prophet. In his Instagram post, Saad called Nupur brave and opposed the continuing violence and terrorism in the name of Islam. There was an uproar on Saad Ansari’s Facebook post. Fanatics gathered outside his house. They beat him and got him to read Kalma. A complaint was also lodged against Saad at the Bhiwandi police station and he was also arrested. The engineering student wrote in his post that a 50 year old man should marry a 6-9 year old girl, this is child abuse. I don’t know how people are supporting this. Think you will give your 6 year old daughter to a 50 year old man?
Apart from this, Saad wrote in another Instagram post that he does not support any religion and hates him the most. Saad wrote that I am just afraid to live in a world where you and your family are killed, because you said something about a person who passed away many years ago. Saad further wrote that leave such religion, which spreads terror in the world and become human. I know how much hate I have to face after posting all this. You guys are still children.
When the people furious at these posts reached Saad’s house, he could not even hide. He came out and tried to convince the fundamentalists and make his point, but people were not ready to listen to him. He asked him to read the Kalma. When Saad started reciting the kalma, someone in the crowd slapped him. Later the police took him to Bhiwandi police station. One of the protesters even said that if such an incident happened again, the law would take its own course and those people would.
