"Struggles to Survival: Naushad's Journey of Resilience"
My name is
Naushad Hashmi, a 14-year-old boy. I reside in a rented house near Mishra
Petrol Pump in front of Gulzar's house. My parents, Putra Shourabh Hashmi and
Munni Hashmi, work hard to make ends meet. Despite studying up to class 9, I
had to halt my education due to financial constraints.
Two months
ago, I moved to Banaras from my grandmother's house in Mumbai. Witnessing my
mother's health deteriorate due to excessive work, I decided to help her
financially. However, I faced challenges finding work in an unfamiliar place.
That's when my friend Pradeep introduced me to Ranjan Raghuvanshi on February
4, 2021. Ranjan offered me a job installing gas cylinders for a daily wage of
300 rupees.
I agreed
and informed my unwell mother about the opportunity. As I worked diligently,
Ranjan often delayed my payments, promising to settle them later. I trusted him
and continued working.
During my
employment, Ranjan requested that I help his sister, Rittika, find
accommodation in our area, as she faced difficulties commuting from Jaunpur.
Despite suggesting she stay with him, he was hesitant, fearing family
conflicts.
On February
27, 2021, Ranjan's wife called me late at night, urgently seeking Ranjan's
whereabouts. I had the bike he used for work, so I rushed to their place.
Unable to provide answers, I returned home.
The next
morning, Ranjan's wife and mother arrived at our home, questioning why we had
given Ranjan the bike. I explained he had requested it daily for work. They
threatened us and even intimidated my mother.
I humbly
request your investigation into my case to prevent false accusations and ensure
justice prevails.
"Innocence
Shattered: Nurul Hak Galla's Tale of Injustice"
In the
tranquil town of Bajaradiha, Thana-Bhelupur, District-Varanasi, Mr. Nurul Hak
Galla's life took a drastic turn, leading him into a nightmarish ordeal that
would forever alter his existence. This harrowing account reveals his journey
from a peaceful slumber to confronting unfathomable horrors at the hands of
those sworn to protect.
On December
22, 2019, Mr. Galla was abruptly awakened by the violent pounding on his home's
door. He encountered uniformed police officers inquiring about his absent elder
brother, Mumtaz. Fear gripped him at the mere mention of his brother's name.
Without explanation, the officers ordered him to join a procession, leaving him
bewildered, as he had no prior involvement.
Before he
could utter a word, they forcibly apprehended him and thrust him into the
alley. He pleaded for proper clothing, as he was only in undershirt and pants,
but received only vulgar abuse in return.
Out in the
street, he witnessed an overwhelming presence of uniformed police officers,
shrouding the surroundings in terror and helplessness. He was then forced into
a vehicle already occupied by Ziaul Haq, Nasim, and Abdul Jabbar (Nasruddin),
local boys. Fear and uncertainty clouded their thoughts as they wondered about
the reason behind this ordeal.
They were
confined in deplorable conditions in a cell, engulfed in the stench of urine
and feces. The night was agonizing, marked by a yearning for home that seemed
endless.
Morning
brought no release; they remained locked inside, hungry and thirsty. Back home,
their families were unaware of their whereabouts and suffering. Hunger gnawed
at them, but fear kept them from approaching the door for sustenance.
Mr. Galla's
health deteriorated rapidly, with excruciating pain in his stomach and head.
After receiving word that they were being transferred to the Bhelupur police
station, he sought medical attention at a nearby government hospital. Despite
severe torture, the medical report downplayed his injuries.
Unjustly
charged with serious offenses, including sedition, Mr. Galla spent
approximately 25 days in jail, separated from his family. The scars, both
physical and emotional, continue to haunt him.
His story
underscores the urgent need for justice in the face of abuse of power and
serves as a poignant reminder of the resilience of the human spirit in the face
of unimaginable adversity.
