"I want to bring to the notice of this August House a gruesome murder that occurred in Rajasthan where a person was beaten black and blue and kerosene was poured on him and he was burned alive and that video was also taken and shown in all the TVs," M I Shanavas of the Congress said during zero hour.
"So it is in this context the murder of Mohammad Afrazul and similar hate crimes including mob lynching may be investigated by a judicial committee headed by a sitting judge and steps may be taken to restore the confidence of the minorities and ensure fair justice be given to them," Shanavas said.
The video, which went viral, shows a man raving about "love jihad", a term used by sections of Hindu activists to describe marriages between Hindu women and Muslim men, who are accused of seeking to propagate Islam.
