As the investigation into the brutal murder of Ayush and Ahaan in Badaun, Uttar Pradesh, unfolds, chilling new details have emerged, shedding light on the sinister motives behind the heinous crime. The perpetrators, Sajid and his brother Javed, orchestrated a meticulously planned attack that left the entire community grappling with shock and disbelief.
According to revelations from Javed’s interrogation, Sajid, the mastermind behind the gruesome act, had purchased a fresh knife before committing the crime. Claiming that the knife would be used for chopping meat during the Islamic holy month of Ramadan, Sajid’s actions reveal a calculated intent to deceive and manipulate his way into the victims’ household.
Badaun’s Senior Superintendent of Police, Alok Priyadarshi, provided further insights into the sequence of events leading up to the murders. Sajid, who operated a barber shop in close proximity to the victims’ residence, had established a familiarity with the family over the course of four to five years. On the day of the incident, Sajid feigned illness, abruptly leaving his shop on two occasions before ultimately shutting it down for the day and returning to his family home in Sakhanu village, accompanied by Javed.
It was during their return to Badaun later in the day that Sajid purchased the deadly weapon, under the guise of preparing meat for lunch. Javed, unaware of his brother’s sinister intentions, questioned the need for a new knife, to which Sajid offered a seemingly innocuous explanation, exploiting the ongoing religious observance of Ramadan. The brothers then proceeded to the victims’ house, ostensibly for a social visit, before Sajid unleashed his savage attack.
While Javed maintains his innocence, claiming to have played no part in the gruesome crime, the police’s scrutiny has extended to Sajid’s family members, who have been questioned regarding his behavior and mental state. Revelations about Sajid’s troubled past, including marital discord and a history of aggressive behavior, paint a disturbing portrait of a deeply troubled individual prone to fits of uncontrollable rage.
The police’s assertion that Sajid had already decided to kill the children before visiting their home underscores the premeditated nature of the crime, leaving investigators to piece together the perpetrator’s motivations and psychological profile. As authorities compile and analyze the details provided by witnesses and the victims’ family, the quest for justice intensifies, with the hope of bringing closure to a grieving community.
The swift elimination of Sajid in a police encounter and the subsequent arrest of Javed offer a glimmer of hope in an otherwise harrowing tale of tragedy and loss. Yet, as the investigation deepens, unanswered questions linger, leaving a community shattered by grief and grappling with the incomprehensible cruelty inflicted upon two innocent lives.
