A tragic killing in Dakshina Kannada has sent shockwaves through South India. The Sunni Students Federation of South India (SKSSF) and the Social Democratic Party of India (SDPI) have decried the death of Abdul Rahiman, a Muslim youth, urging law enforcement to act swiftly.

SKSSF's state general secretary, Anees Kousari, voiced deep concern over the 'spate of such killings' affecting public safety and the well-being of peace-loving citizens. Rahiman, noted for his secular values, was neither involved in crime nor political affiliations and played an active role in his local community.

The organizations demand the immediate arrest of those responsible for the heinous act and accuse right-wing entities of orchestrating the attack, while criticizing governmental silence on the issue. They attribute the murder to widespread hate speech inciting communal violence.
