Why Police Shielding this Jihadi Romeo who Masqueraded as Hindu Youth?

Kochi: A Jihadi romeo who masqueraded as a Hindu youth and trapped a Hindu girl into marriage, is now being shielded by police. Even though the victim secured a divorce from the Jihadi, he has been harassing her endlessly, subjecting her to various kinds of tortures including physical assaults. Police, instead of arresting the accused, is allegedly ensuring that he remains protected. 

 

According to sources Anzar the Jihadi, a native of Cheruplasseri, baited his victim via the social media platform Facebook, using a pseudonym Anu Ottappalam. Posing to be Aneesh a Hindu Nair youth, he managed to win the victim’s trust. He swindled her of a huge sum of money before marriage and subjected her to sexual harassment continuously. It was following the registration of marriage that the victim came to know about the Jihadi’s true identity. 

 

“She soon proceeded to file for a divorce, but was threatened and blackmailed against the same by the Jihadi, who began circulating morphed pornographic pictures of the victim via Facebook and Whatsapp. The Jihadi is said to have reached her workplace and battered her physically there,” said sources. 

 

Unable to put up with the tortures, the victim proceeded legally and filed an FIR with Thrikkakara police. However it is being alleged that in spite of being a non bailable offense, the accused has not yet been arrested by police, even though a month has lapsed. Anzar has approached the High Court seeking bail. It has been alleged that the police are aiding him for procuring bail.
