The Real Story Behind 'Ajmer 92'
The Ajmer 92 film is based on a scandalous incident in Ajmer in 1992. Farooq and Nafis Chishty, members of the influential Khadim family overseeing the Ajmer Sharif Dargah, were involved in a series of crimes. They lured young women to a secluded farmhouse, where they were gang-raped and blackmailed. Farooq had befriended a girl from a local school and used her to introduce him to her classmates, who became unsuspecting victims of the Chishty brothers and their accomplices.
Legal Proceedings and Aftermath
In September 1992, eighteen serial offenders were charged and brought to court. The first eight were reportedly sentenced to life in prison; however, four of them were acquitted by the Rajasthan High Court in 2001. In 2007, a fast-track court in Ajmer convicted Farooq Chishti, but in 2013, he was released by the High Court on the grounds of time served.
'Ajmer 92' serves as a stark reminder of the dark chapter in Ajmer's history, exposing the exploitation and suffering endured by countless young girls. The film's release promises to shed light on the untold stories and the resilience of the victims. As audiences await the premiere, the anticipation is accompanied by calls for justice and reflection on the need for awareness and action against such heinous crimes.
