(The Quiver) Muslim women are targeted and harassed by an unidentified group on the internet by uploading their photos and auctioning them online. The photos were uploaded on an app called GitHub by the name of ‘Bulli Bai’ on Saturday (January 1, 2022).
Muslim women photos are being displayed as ‘Bulli Bai’ in the app. A journalist, who is one of the women named in the app, said that Muslim women have had to start the year with a “sense of fear and disgust.”
After the news went viral, the Delhi police took cognisance of the matter and have asked concerned officials to take action.
Shiv Sena MP Priyanka Chaturvedi also raised concern with the Mumbai police regarding the matter and demanded that the culprits should be arrested at the earliest. She tweeted, “I Have spoken to @CPMumbaiPolice and DCP Crime Rashmi Karandikar ji. They will investigate this. I have also spoken to @DGPMaharashtra for intervention. Hoping those behind such misogynistic and sexist sites are apprehended.”
She further added, “I have repeatedly asked Hon. IT Minister @AshwiniVaishnaw ji to take stern action against such rampant misogyny and communal targeting of women through #sullideals like platforms. A shame that it continues to be ignored.”
Reacting to the development, Mumbai Police said they have taken cognisance of the matter and that concerned officials have been asked to take action. Mumbai cyber police have initiated a probe in connection with the objectionable content, an official said. “The app ‘Bulli Bai’ works just the same way as ‘Sulli Deals’ did. Once you open it, you randomly find a Muslim woman’s face being displayed as Bulli Bai,” a social media user said. But until now no actions are taken agaist the cyber criminals.
