In Uttar Pradesh's Budaun, during Ramadan, two minor brothers, Ayush, 11, and Ahan, 6, were murdered at their home by a barber named Sajid Sheikh, also known as Mohammad Sajid, and his accomplice Mohammad Javed. The assailant, who had entered their home under the pretext of asking for tea, slit their throats with an axe. The daughter was also attacked but survived with grievous injuries. Following the attack, an angry mob vandalized Sheikh's shop and attempted to take justice into their own hands before police intervention. The incident led to significant communal tension and civil unrest in the area. The Uttar Pradesh police later killed the accused, Sajid Sheikh, in police firing after he attempted to flee. Heavy security was deployed in the area following the incident. Political figures, including Congress leader Pramod Tiwari and Samajwadi Party MP Ram Gopal Yadav, have commented on the incident, highlighting the lack of law and order in the state and calling for strict action against the culprits. Accusations were made against the BJP-led UP government for fostering a 'jungle raj' and attempting to create communal tensions ahead of the Lok Sabha elections. Union MoS and BJP leader BL Verma met the victims' family, amidst ongoing political fallout.
