The state Wakf Board (Hyderabad) has come under sharp criticism for making “compromises” with land grabbers who demolished the historic Qutub Shahi mosque at Balapur, Hyderabad. It was when public protest mounted against the land grabbing and demolition of the 400-year-old mosque at Balapur, that the Wakf Board initiated legal proceedings against the land grabbers. Following this, the Pahadishareef police had arrested five accused men and sent them to jail on the charge of land grabbing and under several other Sections of the IPC. But now, the Wakf Board authorities submitted an affidavit in the AP High Court, stating that they “don’t have any intention to prosecute the accused” and they had “no objection to quash the case.” “While the police is going ahead with the case, Wakf Board, the body meant to protect the Wakf properties, is rather protecting the culprits who not only grabbed the Wakf land but also demolished a historic mosque,” allege activists who are seeking protection of Wakf properties.
