After being granted bail by a local court, she had been asked to distribute five Qurans. Expressing her dissent, she said: “I am not ready to distribute Qurans. There are lots of Muslims who post a lot of wrong things. There's no action against them. Like Faizu had posted a video on TikTok saying if Muslims become terrorists, then one shouldn't blame them.”
1. 'I will not distribute Qurans'
She further said: “Why do only Muslims want to become terrorists? Why don't Kashmiri Pandits feel the need for revenge? Why don't they feel like becoming terrorists? Why do only Muslims become terrorists?"
Expressing her dissent, she said: “I will not distribute Qurans. Tomorrow they will say, accept Islam. Has a Muslim ever been asked to Ramayana paath or Mahabharata paath? Are Muslims ever asked to read Hanuman Chalisa?"

A case was registered against her in Pithoria Police station when she shared a message on Facebook asking why 'only became terrorists seeking revenge'.
Her arrest drew strong condemnations from the locals and several Hindu organisations. On Saturday, they'd staged a dharna outside the local police station.
