Muhammed Rinshad, known by the name Rinshad Reera, is a student activist from Government College, Malappuram.[2]

Activism

In February 2019, Kerala police arrested Rinshad Reera and Faris for allegedly protesting against Sangh Parivar.[3]

Classmates claimed that they were condemning violence against Kashmiri students after the Pulwama terror attack which killed 49 CRPF personnel.[5]

Human rights organisations and Activists had taken a strong stand against the arrest of the students. They released a joint statement signed by the group of activists, lawyers, journalists demanding immediate release of the Student Activists.[6][7] In February 2019 the Judicial First Class Magistrate Court at Malappuram granted them bail.[8]

Gang attack

In March 2019, a gang of masked men attacked Rinshad with iron rods and sticks when he was at home. He managed to escape with minor injuries and sought refuge in a neighbouring house. They threatened him that he would face the same fate of JNU student Najeeb Ahmed, who went missing years ago, if he continue speaking against the Sangh Parivar.[9] Rinshad said he was targeted because of his political stand against RSS.[10] Next day people organised a political meeting and all local political parties participated in the meeting which made a rally in his home town to show their solidarity towards him.[11]
