A Muslim man was thrash­ed for readin­g Hindu religi­ous book. A Muslim man in India was beaten for reading from Hindu scripture. The two men, identified as Sameer and Zakir, beat up Dilsher and took away Gita from his house. “I am a Muslim but religion doesn’t restrict me from reading holy books of other communities,” Dilsher added. Last month, the Indian police arrested 11 people over the killing of a Muslim man who was tortured and forced to chant Hindu slogans.
