He was shot dead, allegedly by some cow vigilantes, in Alwar district of Rajasthan last week while transporting cows
Even as the family of dairy farmer Umar Khan is struggling to come to terms with his killing in Alwar district of Rajasthan last week while transporting cows, a police notice demanding immediate consent for a post-mortem has caused fresh fear and hostility in Ghatmika village, situated on the Rajasthan-Haryana border.
Since the November 10 gunning down of Umar, 35, allegedly by some cow vigilantes, his two companions have not returned to the village, 95 km from Bharatpur, for fear of arrest. They have been booked by the police on the charge of cow smuggling,
The notice, served on Wednesday by the Govindgarh police station on the family, demanded its consent for Umar’s autopsy, failing which it said the police would get conduct a post-mortem and bury the body after performing the rituals.
Family demands arrest of culprits, compensation
A deadlock on the post-mortem has been persisting in Jaipur, with Umar’s relatives insisting on the arrest of all culprits and a compensation of Rs. 50 lakh.
“We are at a loss to decide what to do. My son was murdered for no fault [of his]. He had borrowed ₹15,000 from some acquaintances to buy a milch cow for his children, but was mercilessly killed,” 80-year-old Shahabuddin, Umar’s father, told The Hindu. The family had three goats and it decided to purchase a cow for its dairy occupation.
The family has a small land holding of half bigha, which is insufficient to serve its needs. Umar’s cousin, Javed Khan, said he had settled for a cow instead of a buffalo, as the latter costs Rs.70,000, and the excess milk could be sold after feeding the large family. “We never thought that the transport of cows for a bona fide purpose could be given the twist of cow smuggling,” he said.
Maqsood (18), the eldest among Umar Khan’s eight children, was unable to say how he would take care of his mother and siblings. “I spoke to him [my father] around noon that day when I was in Bengaluru in a truck to train as a driver. He was excited as he was investing money in buying a cow for the first time,” he said. He rushed back to Ghatmika on hearing of his father’s death and found his mother, Khurshidan, in iddat (seclusion) and grandparents, relatives and neighbours in mourning.
Father expects job for grandson
Mr. Shahabuddin said a job for his grandson was the minimum he expected from the government. He rubbished the claim that his son and his associates were transporting cows for slaughter. “You will find cows, buffaloes and goats in each of the 400 households in this village. We never eat cow meat.”
The house comprises two rooms with a thatched roof and has a large courtyard. Amid the crowd of villagers and some Meo Muslim leaders from Alwar, Mr. Shahabuddin’s wife lay on a cot after being injected with sedatives. Ms. Khurshidan is pregnant with her ninth child.
Ghatmika sarpanch Shaukat Khan said the villagers suspected that the policemen at Govindgarh were complicit in the crime. “The police booked fellow travellers Tahir Khan and Javed in a cow smuggling case, but were silent on Umar Khan's whereabouts for two days. Only after making multiple rounds of Govindgarh and Ramgarh police stations, we were told that his body had been found on the railway track and sent to Alwar.”
Despite the lack of assurance from the government — no officer has visited Ghatmika since November 10 — Umar Khan’s family is hopeful of getting justice after the impasse over the post-mortem gets resolved. Neighbours bring food for the family, which is waiting for the body for burial in the village graveyard.

Five cows, with their legs tied up, were found in the mini truck. Police suspect the cows were made to drink acid to prevent them from making noise.
A suspected cow smuggler hailing from Haryana was killed in a late-night encounter with police in the Alwar district of Rajasthan, the latest incident of violence in the region over claims of cattle smuggling.
The incident took place in the Janta Colony area on Wednesday night. A group of five to seven people were seen transporting cows in a “stolen” mini truck. When police tried to stop them, they opened fire at the policemen.
“The policemen informed the control room following which separate teams tried to intercept the vehicle at SMD circle, Kali Mori overbridge, and college circle but the accused opened fire and fled towards the Maujpur House road,” Superintendent of Police of Alwar Rahul Prakash said.
The police opened retaliatory fire, and one person identified as Talim, a 22-year- old, was killed. The other people fled the spot. Efforts are on to locate them, Prakash said.
“Talim’s body was found in the truck, while the other people abandoned the vehicle when police were chasing it,” said O.P. Galhotra, Director General of Police (DGP). Five cows, with their legs tied up, were found in the mini truck. One of them was found dead, he said.
A country-made pistol, a mobile phone, a diary and live cartridges were found in the vehicle. Police suspect the cows were made to drink acid to prevent them from making noise. The DGP said it was a “stolen vehicle and the accused had concealed it chassis number.“
The encounter killing was being probed by the CID-CB according to the guidelines of the Supreme Court and the National Human Rights Commission. The post-mortem on the body could not be conducted today as government doctors went on mass leave.
“The post-mortem could not be conducted as the government doctors were on mass leave today. His family members are ready to accept the body and the post-mortem will be conducted tomorrow,” SHO Aravali Vihar police station Shishram Meena said.
In April, a dairy farmer, Pehlu Khan, had allegedly died after being thrashed by a mob of cow vigilantes in Alwar.
In November, cow vigilantes allegedly shot dead 35-year- old Ummar Khan, and critically injured his fellow passenger transporting cows in the district’s Govindgarh area.

Police officials said the cows were being smuggled and one person was caught while escaping

Police in Rajasthan’s Alwar shot at a truck being allegedly used to smuggle cows early on Monday, officials said, claiming people in the vehicle were the first ones to open fire.
This is the second such case in days. Last week, a man was killed when police in Alwar similarly opened fire to stop a truck.
Officials said Monday’s shootout did not lead to any fatalities and one person was arrested.
“They were smuggling seven cows and six calves from somewhere near Narnaul to their village Palla in Nuh through Alwar. When they saw the police barricading at Gadpur, they fired at the police parties before taking a turn into a locality,” said Bhiwadi circle officer (CO) Siddhant Sharma.
Sharma said 3-4 shots were fired first at the police team, which returned 4-5 shots.
The vehicle eventually got struck in a narrow street and the men fled on foot before one of the suspects, identified as 35-year-old Umar, was caught since he hurt his leg, according to police. The others were named as Tahir, Haroon and Zubair.
Alwar is close to Mewat that straddles Haryana and Punjab. The region has a prominent settlement of Muslims, many of whom are from impoverished backgrounds and trade in cattle for a living. People often buy cattle from the several weekly markets and take them to their village, often passing by Alwar.
It was in Alwar that dairy farmer Pehlu Khan was lynched by ‘cow-protection’ vigilantes who accused him of smuggling the animal. Khan had bought the cow legally.
In Monday’s case, the police also accused the cattle transporters of smuggling. The CO said the bovines were bought for Rs 10,000 and were being taken for slaughter. It was not clear on what basis the claim was made.
A case against the four has been registered under the bovine act, sections of arms act, and for attempt to murder and assault on public servant.
Cows are considered sacred by Hindus and the animal’s preservation has become a prominent, often provocative issue since the rise of the Bharatiya Janata Party. Vigilante groups with members who belong to right-wing groups have attacked and killed people found carrying cows or over suspicions that they ate beef. The targets have overwhelmingly been Muslims.

Jaipur, February 1
Three men, who were travelling with Pehlu Khan when a mob of vigilantes lynched him, have been accused of offences related to cow smuggling in a charge-sheet filed by the Rajasthan Police in a court in Alwar’s Behror town, officials said.
A fourth man, who owned the vehicle in which Khan and others were transporting bovines, has also been named in the charge-sheet, they said.
The charge-sheet was put up before the additional chief judicial magistrate in Behror town of Alwar district on January 24.
Khan’s lynching in April last year had led to a massive furore. Following his death, the police had registered two cases — one against the vigilantes over his killing, and another against Khan and his companions for allegedly being involved in cow smuggling.
In the charge-sheet, the police have claimed that on the basis of statements of witnesses and evidence, offences under some sections of the Rajasthan Bovine Animal (Prohibition of Slaughter and Regulation of Temporary Migration or Export) Act, 1995, were made out against Azmat, Rafique and Arjun Lal Yadav, according to official sources.
Offences under section 6 of the Act have been found proved against Jagdish Prasad, the father of Arjun Lal Yadav, the charge-sheet states.
According to section 6, the transporter is also an abettor and liable for the same punishment as the person committing the offence.
Azmat and Rafique are from Khan’s village, Jaisinghpur, in Haryana. They were accompanying Pehlu Khan when he was attacked and lynched.
Yadav was driving one of the two pickup trucks that were attacked on April 1 while the fourth accused is his father Jagdish Prasad, who had the truck registered in his name.
The investigating officer in the case claimed that the accused men were found guilty of smuggling cows as they did not possess valid documents for transporting bovines.
“I have the valid purchase receipt issued by the Jaipur Municipal Corporation. At the time of the purchase, nobody told us we needed additional permits. We were attacked and beaten up by the mob and now we have been made accused,” said Azmat.
According to the Rajasthan Bovine Animal (Prohibition of Slaughter and Regulation of Temporary Migration or Export) Act, the collector of a district or any other officer authorised by the state government can issue permits for migration of bovines outside Rajasthan.
Pehlu Khan and others were returning from a cattle fair on Jaipur’s outskirts to their homes in Haryana when they were attacked by cow vigilantes in Behror.
The mob, calling Pehlu Khan and his companions cattle smugglers, assaulted them. Pehlu Khan died two days later and a video documenting the lynching went viral.
Nine men were charged for the murder of Khan after police identified them from video footage. The case is pending before a court. Another investigation in September last year had cleared six others, who were named by Khan in the FIR as his assailants. — PTI

They were going to depose in the trial
A group of unidentified persons allegedly opened fire on the witnesses, including his two sons, in dairy farmer Pehlu Khan’s lynching case, on Saturday, when they were on their way to Behror town in Rajasthan’s Alwar district to depose at a sessions court during the trial.
Their car, coming from Nuh in Haryana, was overtaken and fired upon by an SUV near Neemrana on the Delhi-Jaipur National Highway. The witnesses included Pehlu Khan’s sons, Arif and Irshad, and Rafiq and Azmat, who were accompanying him during the attack by cow vigilantes last year. Their lawyer, Asad Hayat, was also travelling in the same car.
Mr. Hayat said a black SUV without a number plate overtook them and tried to stop their car, while its occupants shouted at them. “When we did not stop, they fired on us and sped towards Behror. We then took a U-turn and proceeded towards Alwar from a different route through the villages,” he said. No one was injured.
FIR registered
The Alwar police have registered an FIR against unknown persons. Superintendent of Police Rajendra Singh said CCTVs installed on the National Highway 8 would be checked to identify the assailants.
The People’s Union for Civil Liberties has demanded immediate security for the witnesses to ensure a fair and impartial trial.
