In a disturbing turn of events, religious tensions have escalated in Mumbai’s suburb of Mira-Bhayandar following a series of violent incidents involving minors. The incident, which occurred on the 30th of March, 2024, began innocuously as two minors, one Hindu and one Muslim, were playing a mobile game together.
According to reports, the Muslim minor boy made derogatory remarks about the Hindu faith and abused Hindu Gods, provoking a quarrel between the two. The situation escalated when, a day later, the Muslim minor assaulted another Hindu minor who questioned him about the previous incident.
Subsequently, the Muslim minor, accompanied by five others, allegedly assaulted the first Hindu minor and his brother on separate occasions. The victims sustained injuries and were reportedly beaten severely.
Upon learning of the incidents, the victims’ parents filed a First Information Report (FIR) at the Kashigaon Police Station. Due to the age of the individuals involved, their names have been withheld from the public.
This incident has sparked concerns among the local community regarding the safety and security of minors in the area. Authorities are investigating the matter and have assured that appropriate action will be taken against those responsible.
The situation is developing, and further updates will be provided as new information becomes available.
