  • Summary::

    Burugupalli Hasham and Molla Afzer of Pulusumamidi village of Vikarabad (mandal), Ranga Reddy (Dist) in Andhra Pradesh attempted to murder a Dalit woman, Byagari Parwathamma on 8.12.2003. Byagari Parwathamma w/o Devaiah of Nalapur village is residing at Pulusumamidi village, Vikarabad Mandal, Ranga Reddy District. But, after a daughter was born to Parwathamma and Devaiah, Devaiah refused to look after Parwathamma and their child. Hence she returned to her mother’s house. Her father, Pochaiah, had passed away when she was only a child. Now she is about 40 years old. She belongs to Mala (SC) by caste. She is an agricultural coolie. After her younger brother Laxmaiah’s marriage, the Government had allotted him a house. He gave that house to his sister Parwathamma and she is staying in that house at Pulusumaamidi.

     

     Vikarabad is 90 kms away from Hyderabad and Pulusumamidi, is 7 1/2 kms from Vikarabad. The houses in Pulusumamidi are concentrated in 2 adjacent areas, a little away from each other. In one area there are 35 Mala (SC) families, 40 Madiga (SC) families and 10 Muslim families. This habitation is known as Colony. In the neighboring area, about a furlong away, there are 80 Kurva(BC) families, 7 Mudiraj(BC) families, 10 Eediga(Gouds,BC) families, 300 Reddy families and 60 Muslim families. Agriculture is the main occupation in the village. Major part of the land in and around the village is in the hands of the Reddys. Most of the SCs, BCs and Muslims work as agricultural labourers. Politically one Kumar Reddy s/o Narayana Reddy of Congress party and one Manikya Reddy s/o Ranga Reddy of Telugu Desam party control the village between themselves.In short the entire village is economically, socially and politically under the domination of the Reddy community(OC).

     

    Sometime in the middle of 2003, Burugupalli Hasham @ Md. Hasham (32 yrs/2003) s/o Basheer sahib Muslim by community and resident of Pulusumamidi used criminal force on Suguna, Parwathamma’s daughter in the odd hours, with the intention of outraging Suguna’s modesty. But they had not complained to the police or anybody else out of fear of loss of prestige. This emboldened Hasham(perpetrator) in seeing Parwathamma as a weak person. Later, an election to the village vidya committee was held. B. Parwathamma was elected a member of the committee. Burugupalli Hasham @ MD.Hasham s/o Basheer Sahib, residing at Pulusumamidi contested to the post of the Chairman of the vidya committee. Hasham expected Parwathamma to vote for him but she voted for another person who won to the post of the Chairman of the Vidya Committee. This incident made Burugupalli Hasham nurture grudge against Parwathamma and then on he was waiting for a chance to take revenge on her.

     

    On the intervening night of 8/9-12-2003 B. Parwathamma was sleeping at home on a cot. Her grand-daughter, Saritha (7years) d/o Suguna and Narsimha was sleeping beside her. Burugupally Hasham and Molla Afzer broke the streetlight that was near B. Parwathamma’s house. After that they broke open the door of Parwathamma’s house using the jack-rod of a tractor, entered the house. Both of them caught hold of her by her head and her legs and placed her on the floor. One of them , then stamped her throat with his foot and shouted, ”We will kill you”. Then, she recognised him from his voice that he was none other than Burugupalli Hasham @ MD. Hasham (32 years 2003) s/o Basheer Sahib, Muslim by community and a resident of Pulusumamidi village, Vikarabad (Mandal). B. Hasham had a “raggu’ (woollen blanket) wrapped around him. While they were grappling with each other, his ‘raggu’ fell onto the ground and B. Hasham’s face and the baniyan he wore, were seen by her. The other attacker was Molla Afzer @ Md. Afzer (26yrs 2003) s/o Babu Miya, Muslim by community and resident of Pulusumamidi village of Vikarabad (Mandal). M. Afzer was wearing a rain coat.  In the tussle, they broke her bangles and Hasham shouted, “Do you dare not to support me in the vidya committee!”  Hearing all this noise, Parwathamma’s granddaughter, Saritha, woke up and though looked shocked, asked them, “Do not harm my mamma” and came in between them and her. They pushed Saritha violently out of the house so that they would meet with no obstruction in the fulfillment of their evil design. Hasham then threatened to kill her, branding a knife in his hand and soon stabbed her on the neck thrice. She was groaning and writhing in great pain. Blood was all over her body and the floor around. She soon collapsed. They then took away the 1 ½ tulaa (15 Gms) gold ornaments from her neck and 10 (100Gms) tulaas silver ornament from leg. Thinking that she was dead, they fled from her house.

     

    An attempt to murder and robbery case was registered in Vikarabad Police Station against the assailants. She was admitted in the Vikarabad Govt. Hospital. After two days she was discharged from Hospital.
