A Muslim roadside restaurant owner has been arrested in Uttar Pradesh’s Sambhal
district for wrapping a meal containing meat in a newspaper carrying images of
Hindu deities.



Police said Mohammed Talib, the restaurant owner, was booked under the Indian
Penal Code’s Section 295 A (promoting religious enmity) on the complaint of
Hindu Jagran Manch district president Kailash Gupta. In his complaint, Gupta
accused Talib of hurting religious sentiments deliberately.

Jitendra Kumar, a local police officer, said Talib was booked for wrapping meat
items in a newspaper, which carried images of Hindu gods and goddesses during
Navratra. “After getting the complaint against Talib, we immediately took action
and booked him,” Kumar said.

Workers at the restaurant insisted wrapping food items in newspapers is a common
practice and Talib did not do this to hurt anyone. They added it was just a
matter of chance that Talib used a newspaper carrying images of Hindu gods and
goddesses.
