Ramaswami: There were 20 odd riot victims who lay injured in a small hospital in Mustafabad – the Al Hind Hospital – who needed to be transferred to the government-run Guru Tegh Bahadur hospital in order to receive proper treatment. The doctors at Al-Hind had been trying since 4 pm to get the police to provide an escort for ambulances to take the injured safely away since the Hindutva mobs were still threatening them. Sadly, the police offered them no help. In desperation, they approached the high court through a lawyer and Justice S. Muralidhar convened a special sitting in his house and ordered the police to provide the victims safe passage.
