A Muslim delivery boy was thrashed by some Hindu men when he along with his senior consultant entered an apartment for delivery and forgot to register in the log. The watchman started hitting the senior consultant first but let him go after hearing his name. Later he demanded the name of the boy and started beating him upon knowing that he is a Muslim. More people joined in after they heard him saying ‘Allah’ in pain. The watchman told him to not take the name of Allah here and that “You Mullas always create a ruckus wherever you go.” Later he was rescued by some people and was made to apologize for entering the apartment without registering. An CIR was filed under sections 323, 294(b), 114 Ns, 295(1) against the perpetrators.
