Bareilly Court rejects petition filed by Nida Khan’s husband; to be tried for domestic violence

Bareilly: A Bareilly court while hearing a case of domestic violence rejected the petition filed by Nida Khan’s husband who had sought a stay on the domestic violence case filed against him by Khan on Wednesday. Next hearing will be on July 27.

Nida Khan approached the Supreme Court and challenged the triple talaq given by her husband and filed a domestic violence case against Sheeren and his family for allegedly torturing her.

Khan is the wife of Usman Raza Khan alias Anzu Miyan Sheeran of Dargah-e-Ala Hazrat family. Since he was divorced in 2016, Khan is running an NGO to support triple talaq victims in Bareilly.

Recently Imam Mufti Khurshid Alam of Bareilly Jama Masjid issued fatwa against Nida Khan saying, “No medicines will be provided if she falls ill. If she dies, no one is allowed to offer namaz on her ‘janaza’ (funeral procession). She cannot be buried in graveyard after her death. As Nida wants an amendment in Sharia while Islamic laws were made by Allah and has been making statements against Quran and Hadith she is ostracized from Islam, he said.
