New Delhi [India], May 2 : Jamiat Ulama-I-Hind on Tuesday approached the Supreme Court seeking a stay on the release of the movie 'The Kerala Story' in theatres and OTT platforms saying the movie is likely to cause hatred and enmity between different sections of society in India.The plea said the film demeans the entire Muslim community and it will result in endangering the life and livelihood of the entire Muslim community.Seeking direction to not allow the release of the movie, the plea also sought direction that its trailer be removed from the internet.Alternatively, it sought direction that the movie 'The Kerala Story' be released with a disclaimer stating that it is a work of fiction and the characters in the movie bear no resemblance to any person living or dead."The message the movie imparts is that non-Muslim young women are being lured into converting to Islam by their classmates and subsequently, trafficked to West Asia where they are forced to join terrorist orgsations. The movie gives the impression that apart from extremist clerics who radicalise people, ordinary Muslim youngsters, their classmates, also play an instrumental role in luring non-Muslims and radicalising them by posing as friendly and good-natured, in accordance with instructions given by extremist scholars," the plea stated.It added that the film promotes the view that "love jihad" is being used to lure non-Muslim women into converting to Islam and also joining ISIS".However, an investigation by the State police carried out in 2009 revealed that there was no evidence of "love jihad" in the State of Kerala, it further said.The movie may adversely impact social relations between communities as well as individuals belonging to different communities by spreading enmity, hatred and suspicion, the plea stated.In the morning, the apex court declined to hear immediately an application seeking a stay on the release of the film 'The Kerala Story', which allegedly promotes hate speech.The application was mentioned before a bench of Justices KM Joseph and BV Nagarathna and the bench said the fresh application can't be tagged along with a batch of hate speech cases.It asked the petitioners to move the appropriate forum since the movie has gone through a process of certification by the Censor Board."The film claims to be "inspired by many true stories". The story-line of the said film as seen from the trailer is how thousands of Hindu and Christian women are being lured and brainwashed by Muslim men pursuant to an international conspiracy, converted to Islam, turned into radicals and trafficked to become part of ISIS where they are kept against their will, abused and exploited," the application has stated.The film depicts how thousands of young women were allegedly brainwashed into joining the Islamic State (IS) and heading off to countries like Syria and Afghstan.'The Kerala Story', starring Adah Sharma, is set to be released in cinemas on May 5.Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
