Rajasthan Court Gives Bail to Kanhaiya Lal Murder Accused

The Rajasthan High Court granted bail to Mohammed Javed on Thursday, one of the accused in the 2022 murder of Udaipur tailor Kanhaiya Lal.

Javed was arrested by the National Investigation Agency (NIA) on July 22, 2022, in Udaipur.

On June 28 of that year, Kanhaiya Lal was beheaded in his shop by Riyaz Attari and Ghous Mohammed for supporting BJP leader Nupur Sharma’s remarks on Prophet Mohammed. The assailants filmed the murder, posed with the weapons used, and issued threats to Prime Minister Narendra Modi. They were arrested within hours.

Javed’s involvement, as per the NIA, included conducting reconnaissance and informing the killers of Kanhaiya Lal’s presence before the attack.

The murder conspiracy, reportedly planned eight days prior, involved a group meeting, though some attendees deny the discussions. Ghous Mohammed admitted he volunteered to carry out the beheading, with others agreeing to support the murderers’ families post-crime.

i’m Investigations also uncovered an international link to the Karachi-based Dawat-e-Islami. Ghous Mohammed visited Pakistan in 2014, staying for 40 days, and had previously traveled to Saudi Arabia for Umrah in 2013 and 2019.
