Payal Rohatgi faces brunt for inciting Hindu-Muslim issue in Hyderabad Vet's murder case

Bollywood actress Payal Rohatgi is facing the brunt of her actions after she tried to paint the Hyderabad veterinary doctor's rape and murder case as a Hindu-Muslim issue. Many people on social media urged the Hyderabad and Mumbai police to take legal action against her for spreading communal violence.

The rape victim, who was a veterinary doctor, had sought the help of some locals of Shadnagar, Hyderabad after her bike's tyre was punctured. Her body, charred beyond recognition, was found in Shadnagar this morning. It is reported that she was raped and murdered. Hyderabad woke to hear the news about the gruesome and heinous act, which has left everyone shocked, saddened and outrageous.

Thousands of people, including hundreds of celebs, took to Twitter this morning to condemn this barbaric act and demand justice for the victim. Payal Rohatgi, who hails from Hyderabad, was one among them. But besides expressing her anguish, the actress tried to give it a religious colour. She said that a Hindu girl was raped and murdered in a Muslim majority area.

Actress Payal Rohatgi, who calls herself a proud Hindu, tweeted, "राम राम जी #RIPPriyankaReddy Hindu girl raped and murdered by rapists in Shadnagar of Hyderabad Is Shadnagar a Muslim majority area? #IndianMedia please run this story too and get girl justice #OmShantiOm #PayalRohatgi."

Payal Rohatgi did not stop there, as she went to tweet a link to prove Shadnagar is a Muslim majority area. "Ram Ram ji I don't want some people to accuse me of Hindu/Muslim hatred so I am just sharing this link. This is to all those who always SPELL #Hindu word in crimes where they are involved Specially #IndianMedia #RIPPriyankaReddy #PayalRohatgi https://deccanchronicle.com/nation/current-affairs/160517/muslim-population-is-on-the-rise-in-telangana-report.html" she wrote.

Many people were unhappy with Payal Rohatgi inciting Hindu-Muslim issue in the victim's rape and murder case. Some of them have replied to her and condemned her views, while a few others tagged the Hyderabad and Mumbai police and requested them to arrest her or take proper legal action against for spreading communal hatred.

stop stooping so low Payal. stop making everything about religion. before a Hindu, she was a girl and we should be talking about women safety here and not discussing the religion in the area.

People like you always ready to spread communal hate for limelight and never really concerned about justice. You are giving perfect material for media to continue Hindu vs Muslim debate and deviate from this heart wrenching insanity. If you have any insight provide it to police.
