The letter, a copy of which is with The Indian Express, names local Trinamool MLA Javed Khan who acted as a mediator and asked Rizwan to “go and meet his father-in-law”. Rizwan’s family members on Sunday demanded a CBI probe into the matter. Rukbanur Rehman, the victim’s elder brother, said: “My brother died after harassment by police. We will also write to the Chief Minister demanding justice.”
Rizwan’s body was discovered on the railway tracks in Sealdah section between Bidhannagar station and DumDum junction on Saturday morning. Sadiq Hussain, one of the legal witnesses to Rizwan and Priyanka’s marriage, meanwhile, fears for his life. When contacted over phone, he told The Indian Express: “I received threatening calls from Lalbazar. After Rizwan’s death, I think it’s my turn. I have already lodged a complaint with the State Human Rights Commission,” he said over phone.
“On August 31 this year, Priyanka left her parental home and came to reside with me permanently at my Tiljala residence. We submitted a letter of information about our marriage at the office of the Commissioner of Police in, DC South Division, OCs of Karaya, Entally and Bidhannagar, and the SP of North 24-Parganas. Around 4 pm, my wife informed her father about our marriage... He told me that I will have to convert to Hinduism, to which I agreed,” he wrote in the letter dated September 19.
According to his family members and his own statement in the letter, even after formal information to the Kolkata Police regarding their marriage, DC (Headquarters) Gyanwant Singh and DC (Detective Department) Ajay Kumar threatened the couple.
“On September 7, Priyanka’s aunt came, pleading that she must go with her as her father was ill and admitted at Apollo... Local MLA Javed Khan too came to our house and asked us to meet her father,” the letter added. A day later, the couple was called to Lalbazar and threatened, and Priyanka was sent to her parents.
The victim ended the letter with a plea for help. “I’m an honest and sincere citizen of India and have done everything respecting the Constitution. As adults, we have married according to the law of the land. Please help me get in touch with my wife.”



I never understand why we indians have so much time for some stupid talk on religion.
I fully condemn the murder of Rizwanur because he loved a woman named Priyanka and she too loved him.My point is that it,s not the matter of conversion but I think we are all human beings and we have got the right to live and love.But I wouldn't have any qualms if it was a marriage between any othe religion,other than Islam.Islam is the religion of Satan.It preaches hatred and antipathy towards other communities.No other religion whether it is Christianity,Hinduism, Buddhism,Jainism,Confucianism preache repulsion towards other faiths.M
Indians which is a melting point of various ethnic groups converted to this beautiful spiritual tradition and religion Hinduism. Hinduism is the first missionary religion in the world and spread as far as Bali, Cambodia, all of Indonesia
Hinduism is the only spiritual discipline that can save humanity from the terrible competing Middle eastern religions. The west is slowly but surely finding the spirituality of Hinduism and not Islamic
ur worng my dear bro , hinduism is man made religion , and worship natural thing no one has seen any goddess , like durga ma , have u it is just imagination and just to concentrate while imagining supernatural power, rizan was muslim and he was not willing to chage any other religion just for his wife , he was killed by brutal people not they were not muslim as u all know , so who is responsible here muslim or hindu , if any girl was to marry any muslim boy and she is also intreseted in converting not for that boy but for supreme shapless power,
A non-Hindu, especially a Muslim, can not be convered to Hinduism.
i am fully agree with maria khan and everyone should give her support.in reply to krishnamohan,i want to say that anybody can be converted to hinduism.
Who said so ? There are no ban on conversion to Hinduism by any law. If conversion from hinduism to Islam and Christianity is guaranteed in constitution, It is guaranteed that the conversion can go the other way as well. The killing of Rizwan who was ready to become an apostate show the tolerance of of "religion of peace".
Only an ignorant fool would claim a person cannot convert to Hinduism. Hindu Dharma is the dharm of humanity not a small section of people.
sad... see, that's why i dislike Muslims. wo bande ko sirf isliye maar dala just becase e loved his wife and if he wanted to convert or not, it's his personal matter. if i wanna convert from Christianity to any other relegion, no one should have ny say in this.God bless his soul and punish the Muslims who called him an "apostate" and took his life.
And Mr.Smart ass..what makes u think that rizwan was killed by a muslim..I am sure he wud have been murdered by one of the Hidnu extremists only. People like u dont only hate religions, you hate human kind and then go on to destroy things u cant control. In fact I think he must have been killed by some christian only, so that Hindu n Muslim get into communal riots n you can enjoy the same on TV sets @ home.Allh tumhari rooh ko manzil pahuchae Rizwan!!
or perhaps by some communist friend of kalifacists, anyways khalifat and communalism goes handy with each other... same "ein führer, ein volk" concept... führer is mad, and volk is also mad...and its always was like this.... communist/Socialist/markist created massmurderes like Stalin, Mao, Pol Pot, and don't forger Hitler[ had you forgot the socialist part of National socialists (Nazi's)? ]...the story from kalifasists is also no different.. and millions of corpse are even hidden in that too...so lets come to the front, Amin al husseini (the Mufti of Hitler) was the religious figure guiding hitler, when hitler was massmurdering and we also know about (Haji Mohammed) Amin al husseini's indian visit and indian friends...so there are more things pointing to Islamic role in this murder... including your last message..thats ."Allh tumhari rooh ko manzil pahuchae Rizwan!!".. look how greedy message you have posted, insted of asking shanti(Peace) to soul, you are asking for political destination (Manzil) to be attained by his butchering...
