AN outraged father in Nagpur, India, attacked a volunteer mosque worker after he learned that his son, 9, had been lured by the man into the mosque storeroom and raped.

Others reportedly joined in the assault on Mohd Ashfaque Sheikh Nazir, who rushed to Sadar police station to lodge a complaint. While a bleeding Ashfaque was taken to Mayo hospital, the boy’s father and others were charged with assault.

Police said Ashfaque had joined the mosque as a volunteer cleaner after he had been being released from jail, where he had served time for “a serious offence”.

Nearby residents claimed Ashfaque had frequently been offering lozenges, toffees and money to local boys in the narrow lane behind the mosque.

Said one woman:

We thought he was a reformed soul now, despite his shady past. We thought offering goodies to the local boys was just a friendly gesture. We had no idea that he would turn out to be such a villain.

One of the victim’s friends spotted him going up to the storeroom in the mosque with Ashfaque and suspected something was amiss and told the boy’s father.

The father quizzed his son but he remained silent, But he finally broke down and told his mother, who said:

I was surprised how a grown up man could think of brutalising a small boy.

The boy’s father, who owns a small business, then thrashed Ashfaque with a stick, causing a head injury. Others too joined him in the attack.

Ashfaque has been charged with unnatural sex after a medical report suggested the “possibility” of forceful anal penetration. Ashfaque will be arrested once he is discharged from hospital.

Meanwhile, it is reported here that the chairman of the Luton Islamic Centre, Abdul Qadeer Baksh, told listeners to BBC’s Three Counties Radio that, “in an ideal society” gays should be executed.

He explained:

When I say ‘ideal society’ I mean Islamic society, not a Western secular society like we live in here.
