Former Rajya Sabha member and CPI (M) leader P. Madhu has demanded that the State government constitute a House committee to probe allegations of torture of innocent Muslim youth in Old City of Hyderabad by the police. Rules stipulate that authorities should review the rowdy-sheets once in six months and if the conduct is satisfactory, their names can be cleared. But officials were not taking any steps in this regard and in turn were harassing youngsters, Mr. Madhu maintained. He said footwear shop worker Mohd. Aqeel committed suicide in his house at Nasheman Nagar in Talabkatta a few days ago as he was unable to bear the police torture. In the wake of the suicide by a youth in Old City, following alleged police harassment, MIM demanded closure of all history-sheets against them.
