A 55-year-old woman died after the Uttar Pradesh police raided the house of a Muslim family. The raid was conducted following allegations that the family was storing beef at their home.
The incident occurred at Khatai village in Bijnor district on Monday, August 26. According to the deceased’s daughter, Farhana, four constables barged into their house without any warning.
“They entered the house accusing us of storing beef. We pleaded multiple times there was no beef. We even showed the refrigerator,” she said.
When Farzana’s mother Razia objected to the raid the police allegedly misbehaved with her. “The police misbehaved with us. My mother fell after one of the constables pushed her. She had a panic attack. We took her to the hospital but she died on the way,” Farhana said.
