  • Incitement to Violence, Obfuscation and Perversion of Justice in Delhi CONTENTS Page
    Citizens Against Hate (CAH) is a collective of individuals and groups committed to a democratic, secular and caring India. It is an open collective, with members drawn from a wide range of backgrounds who are concerned about the growing hold of exclusionary tendencies in society, and the weakening of the rule of law. CAH was formed in 2017, in response to the rising trend of hate and vigilante violence, to document violations, provide support to survivors, and engage with institutions for improved justice and policy reforms. Since then, we have also worked on other forms of violations –hate speech, sexual violence and state violence, and citizenship rights among others in Assam, Bihar, Haryana, Kashmir, Rajasthan and Uttar Pradesh. Our approach to addressing the justice challenge facing particularly vulnerable communities is through research, outreach and advocacy; and to provide practical to survivors in their struggles, also helping them to become agents of change. The title of the report is inspired by Arthur Koestler's dystopian novel by the same name, that provides a glimpse into Stalinist totalitarianism. http://citizensagainsthate.org "Photo credits: Danish Siddiqui/Reuters" Incitement to Violence, Obfuscation and Perversion of Justice in Delhi CONTENTS Page Executive summary . 04-07 Abbreviations. 08 List of boxes . 09 Chapter 1:Introduction . 11 1.1 Incitement and targeted attacks . 10-12 1.2 Disinformation and propaganda. 12 1.3 Perversion of justice. 13 1.4 Research, sources and organisation. 14-15 Chapter 2:Crimes against Humanity in Delhi: Targeted Attacks . 16 2.1 Introduction. 17 2.2 Riot or pogrom? . 17-21 2.3 Deliberate and systematic violence: BJP and Hindutva groups.
