None of them states that this was a communal incident. Some regional TV news channels have grossly misreported this incident. To my surprise, even state home minister Araga Dnyanendra made the same claim. Most media outlets carried his statement without verification.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The reporter also shared the FIR copy with us [<a href=\"https:\/\/www.altnews.in\/english-clone-2026\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2022\/04\/10443142120220071.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">view PDF<\/a>]. The FIR only mentions Shahid as the accused. The reporter informed, &#8220;Initially, only one was arrested. After his confession, they nabbed two others.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The FIR was filed by complainant Simon Raj who also hails from the Christian community. It states that both Simon Raj and Chandru were out for Simon&#8217;s birthday. They had gone to Goripalya in search of chicken rolls when Shahid&#8217;s bike hit their vehicle. There was a war of words, and two of Shahid&#8217;s friends joined him. In a fit of road rage, Shahid stabbed Chandru causing extreme bleeding and Chandru succumbed to his injuries on his way to the hospital.<\/p>\n<p>The claim that the victim was Hindu is false as both Simon and Chandru belonged to the Christian community. Furthermore, the FIR filed by Simon doesn&#8217;t allege any communal motivations or that they were forced to speak in Urdu.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Just after midnight on April 6, several social media accounts claimed that a Hindu man named Chandru was killed by Muslims in the Goripalya area of Bengaluru.
