Karnataka High Court Judges Received Death Threats: Hijab Case

Karnataka High Court judges received death threats: Hijab case.

All the judges who pronounced the verdict on the Karnataka hijab case were given Y category security after they received death threats.

The judges of the Karnataka High Court, who delivered the verdict in the Hijab case, have been given Y category security.

The state government has taken this decision after receiving threats from the judges.

Karnataka Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai today said that we have decided to provide Y category security to the three judges who gave the verdict on the hijab.

He also said that the DG and IG have been directed to conduct a thorough investigation into the complaint lodged at the Vidhana Soudha police station.

The threat came from the video.

Let us tell you that in Madurai, Tamil Nadu, a video was going viral on social media.

In this video, Tamil Nadu Thowheed Jamaat member Kovai Rahmatullah was purportedly heard saying that the judge who gave the wrong decision should be killed.

In an indirect threat to the judge, it is said in the video that some people in our society are swayed by emotions.

The video further states that if anything goes wrong with these judges, they will not be responsible for it.

Court had given this decision.

Let us tell you that in January this year, there has been controversy regarding the hijab in Karnataka.

The controversy started when girl students were stopped from wearing hijab in a government college in Udupi and they were not allowed to enter the college.

After this, these girl students approached the Karnataka High Court.

On this, the court dismissed the petition of the girl students and in its judgment said that hijab has never been an essential part of religion.

Students must wear uniforms in school and college and wearing a hijab is not compulsory even in Islam.
