Abhishek Singh Rathaur was attacked by radical Islamists for supporting former BJP Spokesperson Nupur Sharma. “Because I supported Nupur Sharma, the people of the Muslim community ambushed and attacked me,” Rathaur tweeted.

Rathaur who is from Champaran in Bihar, lives in Noida, Uttar Pradesh,  works for the BJP as a Yuva Morcha worker. He was on his way to a restaurant in Noida Sector 44 yesterday when he noticed a gathering of individuals involved in a political conversation. Abhishek joined them in the discourse.

“Because I am politically active, I felt inclined to take part in the discussion and share my opinions. There, I discussed a variety of subjects, including the Nupur Sharma controversy,” said Abhishek in a media report. However, as he left the discussion and moved forward, around half a dozen people with rods and sharp objects attacked him from behind.

“They attacked me from behind. I remember the names of two of them, Amjad and Rashid,” Abhishek added.

Abhishek also stated that they were all standing beside him when the discussion was going on and they kept listening to him speaking and as he moved away, they attacked him with the intention to kill.

2 friends of Abhishek came to his rescue and took him to the hospital in the unconscious state.

Radical Muslims are on a wild killing spree in the name of being ‘offended’ with Nupur Sharma.
