Family of slain IB official Ankit Sharma claims he was targeted for his faith following conviction of former AAP leader
Following the conviction of former AAP councillor Tahir Hussain for the 2020 murder of Intelligence Bureau employee Ankit Sharma during the Northeast Delhi riots, the victim's family has alleged that he was singled out because he was Hindu. Ankit's older brother, Ankur, stated that his brother was a sociable individual who got along with people of all faiths, yet when the attack occurred, even his Muslim acquaintances took part in the violence.
