He thought that the officer&#8217;s visit was related to his application.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The officer left a message for Khan to visit the local police station. When Khan arrived, he was escorted to the commissioner&#8217;s office for questioning.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">He was asked whether he knew someone named Jamil Khan, and responded that Khan was his cousin.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">He was then asked if he knew Ashiq Hussain Khandey, and responded that he didn&#8217;t know anyone by this name.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Police described Khandey as a &#8220;Kashmiri terrorist&#8221; and accused Farukh of planning attacks in Maharashtra with him, saying the pair wanted to &#8220;spread terrorism&#8221;.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">They then, he claimed, took him into custody and assaulted him.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Khan was unaware that in his hometown of Bhusawal, more than 400km away, police had already picked up Jamil and Yusuf Khan, his cousins.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">With them, he became part of a group of Muslim men accused of planning to carry out bomb blasts across the state of Maharashtra, which is home to more than 100 million people, of which Mumbai is the capital.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">For weeks, they appeared on the front pages of newspapers, slammed as &#8220;terrorists&#8221;.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Twelve people were accused initially &#8211; one accomplice gave evidence to the prosecution and escaped trial.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The eleven suspects &#8211; Jamil Ahmed Khan, Mohammed Yunus, Yusuf Khan, Wasim Asif, Ayyub Ismail Khan, Shaikh Shafi, Farukh Ahmad Khan, Abdul Qader Habibi, Syed Ashfaq Mir, Mumtaz Murtuza Mir and Mohammed Haroon Ansari &#8211; were accused of sedition and conspiring against the country.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"article-quotebox\" readability=\"31\"><p>We cried a lot in the courtroom and hugged each other.

We kept saying that we don&#8217;t know anything and are innocent, but the police kept torturing us,&#8221; Khan told Al Jazeera.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">&#8220;The cops would tie our hands by rope behind the body, and stretch our legs in the opposite direction making a 180-degree angle. On several occasions, our hands were tied, and we would be hung upside down.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">&#8220;After torture, they would ask us to sign on blank papers.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">They spent four months in jail before being released on bail by a special court that deals with terror cases in Nashik, a city in Maharashtra.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">&#8220;We never went to jail again, but we were not free also,&#8221; said Jamil, earlier the prime suspect.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"p1\">A life of discrimination<\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">After being stained with the &#8220;terrorist&#8221; label, life was not easy.\u00a0<\/span>Jamil said he was viewed with suspicion, not only by police.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Khan said: &#8220;Such was the environment in Bhusawal in 1994, that half of our friends had left the town with fear that police might arrest them as well. Many of our relatives and friends wouldn&#8217;t even exchange greetings with us. We had become strangers among our own locality.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">In the group, three were doctors and two were engineers. Abdul Qader Habibi now has a PhD.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Khan had a diploma in electronics and telecommunication and another in industrial electronics.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">&#8220;I wanted to work outside for a few years, make some savings and then move back to my city and start something of my own. That is why I had applied for the passport, but this case ruined my life,&#8221; he told Al Jazeera.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">After being accused, he lost his professional job. He now repairs home inverters for a living.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">&#8220;This case ruined our lives,&#8221; he said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Mohammed Yunus, 63, is a doctor by profession and runs a small clinic in his hometown.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">&#8220;After coming out of the jail on bail, for months people wouldn&#8217;t visit my clinic. A prefix, TADA, was added to my name,&#8221; he said, referring to the acronym for the Terrorist and Disruptive Activities (Prevention) Act.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Though TADA was repealed by the government in 1995, the case stalled because of administrative hurdles.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"article-quotebox\" readability=\"31\"><p>There is a systematic investigative bias in terror-related cases against certain communities in India.
