No Islamic courts in India – Taliban type cruelty and injustice in the name of Islam will not be tolerated in India
Law Minister H.R. Bharadwaj on Wednesday declared that the Constitution recognises only one judiciary headed by the Chief Justice of India and none else.
“Constitution does not recognise any of these Islamic courts. There is no question of separate Islamic courts,” he said addressing a press conference at his office.
“Under the Constitution, there is only one judiciary -the lower courts, the High Courts and the Supreme Court and everyone is bound to obey their rulings,” he said.
A young woman was raped by her father-in-law. In any civilised society the person who commits a crime is punished. The victim of the crime is never punished nor condemned. Indeed the victim is compensated and rehabilitated.
The fatwa issued by the Darul Uloom Deoband apparently does not accept this basic principle of justice. According to the fatwa, Imrana — an innocent victim of the rape — has become haram and is not fit to live with her husband and instead should live with her father-in-law. According to press reports, the All India Muslim Personal Law Board (AIMPLB) has stated that the woman’s life could be in danger if she continues to live with her husband in defiance of the fatwa.
India must rise and stop Taliban take India over. India cannot tolerate blatant injustice in the name of Islam.
