An Indian student, Syed Mazahir Ali, pursuing his master’s degree at Indiana Wesleyan University, found himself in a harrowing situation in Chicago after allegedly being assaulted and robbed by four assailants. A distressing video shared widely on social media captures Ali bleeding profusely from his face as he pleads for assistance.
In the video plea, Ali recounts the terrifying ordeal, describing how he was ambushed by four individuals who mercilessly kicked and punched him while robbing him of his belongings. His wife, Syeda Ruquliya Fatima Rizvi, based in Hyderabad, received the alarming news from a friend of Ali, who informed her of the vicious attack near their residence in Chicago.
In a heartfelt appeal addressed to External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar, Rizvi implored for urgent assistance in securing medical treatment for her husband. She also sought aid in arranging travel for herself and their three minor children to join Ali in the US amid the distressing circumstances.
The incident has sparked outrage and concern within the Indian community, particularly as it adds to a string of attacks on Indian American students in recent times. Just last month, four Indian students tragically lost their lives under various circumstances across the country.
Shreyas Reddy Benigeri, a student at Lindner School of Business in Cincinnati, was found deceased in Ohio, with authorities stating that foul play was not suspected. Similarly, Neel Acharya, a student at Purdue University, was reported missing before being discovered deceased on campus.
In another tragic incident, Vivek Saini, an MBA graduate, fell victim to a brutal attack by a homeless man wielding a hammer inside a store in Lithonia, Georgia. Additionally, Akul Dhawan, an 18-year-old Indian-American student, was found dead near the University of Illinois, displaying signs of hypothermia.
These incidents underscore the pressing need for enhanced security measures and support mechanisms to safeguard the well-being of Indian students studying abroad. The plight of Syed Mazahir Ali serves as a stark reminder of the challenges faced by students navigating unfamiliar territories far from home. As authorities continue their investigations, the collective hope remains for justice and safety for all Indian students abroad.
