- خبر من مصادر إنجليزية.

قررت شرطة مدينة "حيدر آباد" بولاية "أوتر براديش" تحت تأثير الخضوع للقوة الهندوسية القومية تفعيل بعض فقرات قوانين حظر ذبح الأبقار وحماية الحيوانات لعام 1977 أثناء احتفال المسلمين بعيد الأضحى وذبح الأضاحي؛ حيث أشار مفوض الشرطة بالمدينة أنه يجب فحص الأضاحي قبل الذبح من قِبَل الأطباء البيطريين والحصول على شهادة تبيح الذبح.

وبالرغم من زعم مسؤولي الشرطة أن هذه الإجراءات تأتي في ظل ازدياد جلب الأضاحي من المناطق المجاورة، وأنها تشمل الأنواع الثلاث إلا أن بعض المراقبين أكدوا أن الهدف التضييق على ذبح الأبقار.

وقد أدى وصول عدد من اللجان إلى الأحياء والقرى بقلب المدينة للتفتيش على المتاجر إلى وقوع بعض المشادات الصغيرة مع أصحاب المتاجر والمسلمين، وقد قام عدد من الرموز الإسلامية وممثلو الأحزاب بمقابلة الحكومة لوقف التحرش بالمسلمين قبيل أيام من عيد الأضحى. المصدر: شبكة الألوكة.

Restriction imposed by police and Hindutva forces on cattle transport and slaughtering before Eid-ul-Azha

Muslims in the city may have to face more restrictions and riders over qurbani (ritual slaughtering) in the upcoming festival of Eidul Azha.

Succumbing to the pressure of right wing Hindu groups city police has decided to implement certain sections of the Andhra Pradesh Prohibition of Cow Slaughter and Animal Preservation Act, 1977.

Hyderabad Commissioner of Police, Anurag Sharma said during a press conference that to prevent any ‘untoward situation’ restrictions will be imposed during Bakreid which is falling on 27th of this month.

He expressed his concern that animals in massive quantity is already being brought into the city from neighboring districts.

Over a week away, this Eid (feast) is more commonly known in India as Bakr-Eid, as goat is generally sacrificed on the day.

Eidul Azha is celebrated to honor the willingness of Ibrahim (Abraham) to sacrifice his son Ismail (Ishmael) on God’s command, before He intervened to provide him with a sheep to sacrifice instead.

After a joint meeting with district officials and Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC) police commissioner said it has been decided to form joint teams to inspect the animals for regulating qurbani.

He made it clear that according to the Andhra Pradesh Prohibition of Cow Slaughter and Animal Preservation Act (1977), cattle has to be examined by the veterinary doctor and a certificate have to be acquired for the slaughter.

Although the commissioner of police made it mandatory for every animal including the sheep, but his real target appears to be cow herds.

And head of city police this time was not making a feeble warning, as soon as the announcement were made special teams consisting of GHMC and police officials raided several narrow streets of old city and took away cattle just days before the Eid.

Special teams were committed enough to enter into the heart of old city like Yakutpura, Badabazar, Reinbazar to seize the cattle, as expected they faced resistance from the residents and owners which turned into a minor clash.

Under Section 5 of Andhra Pradesh Prohibition of Cow Slaughter and Animal Preservation Act, cows and calves of cows and calves of she-buffaloes are protected from slaughter and under Section 6 of the Act, animals other than calf, female or male of a she-buffalo can be slaughtered under certificates issued by the competent authority.
