Bangalore: Brother Abdul Madani is not the only prisoner in our Hindu jails. The country itself has become a vast jail for Muslims, Dalits, tribals and all those fighting Brahminical terrorism. Nasser Madani (41) — Kerala’s most famous Muslim leader — now languishing in the Coimbatore jail for the past nine years, is reduced to skin and skeleton.
He weighed 115 kilos at the time of his midnight arrest on March 31, 1998. Now after nearly a decade, he is seriously ill with spine problems and reduced to mere 46 kilos. But not a single Hindu heart — so famous for its milk of human kindness, tolerance and ahimsa (nonviolence) — is melting. What type of a heart is this? Made out of what?
He married Soofiya 13 years ago of which he spent 10 years in jail. Madani is not the only prisoner in our Hindu jails. The country itself has become a vast jail for Muslims, Dalits, tribals and all those fighting Brahminical terrorism. Thousands and thousands of Muslims, particularly of SIMI, are rotting in jails. In DV, we get post-cards daily from Muslim prisoners all over India asking for our literature and we post them free.
The Supreme Court judges have plenty of tears for their jatwalas, but even when they all know that Madani is locked up without a single charge they have no time.
India’s first Dalit Chief Justice Balakrishnan, a Dalit, is also from Kerala and himself a victim of “Hindu kindness” killing Muslim Madani. He must visit Coimbatore jail, meet Madani, call for all the files and then expedite his release. There cannot be a more serious blood-curdling case in the whole of India than that of Madani. Justice Balakrishnan can see the documentary on the slow death of Madani in the Coimbatore jail to verify our statement.
