Ratlam: Three Muslim children were allegedly forced to chant “Jai Shri Ram” and beaten by two men near Amrit Sagar Lake in Ratlam, Madhya Pradesh.
The incident, which occurred a month ago, surfaced after a video of the assault went viral, Observer Post reported.
According to a police complaint, the children were sitting near a swing when two men, Kailash and Veer, approached them, abused them, and assaulted them with slippers upon learning their Muslim identity.
The attackers reportedly threatened the children with a knife, forced them to chant “Jai Shri Ram,” and filmed the act. One of the children said they were warned, “If you say Allah, we will throw you in the pond.”
The children escaped after one of the men attempted to abduct one of them. Out of fear, they did not initially inform their families. The youngest, a seven-year-old, was severely traumatized and required counseling after locking himself in a room.
The incident was reported to the police after the video went viral, with an FIR filed in the Manakchowk area under multiple sections of the law.
One assailant has been arrested, and the investigation is ongoing. Advocate Imran A Khokar noted that the children and their families remain fearful, with the children temporarily relocated for their safety.
