The statement made by Gujarat police regarding the flogging case of Muslims, where they argue that 3-6 stick blows on the buttocks do not constitute custodial torture, is deeply concerning and raises serious human rights and legal issues.
Custodial torture, regardless of the number of blows or the specific location on the body, is a violation of fundamental human rights and is prohibited under both national and international law. The Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights unequivocally prohibit torture and cruel, inhuman, or degrading treatment.
The duty of law enforcement agencies is to uphold the law, protect citizens’ rights, and ensure justice and equality for all. Any form of torture or abuse by the police is a betrayal of this duty and erodes public trust in the institutions meant to safeguard their well-being.
It is essential for the legal system to thoroughly investigate such cases, hold those responsible accountable, and ensure justice for the victims. Upholding the rule of law and respecting human rights are fundamental principles that must be upheld in any democratic society.
