The accusations caused widespread rioting within Hyderabad.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Sitting perpetually on a powder keg|url=http://www.thehindu.com/2003/12/08/stories/2003120810050300.htm|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20181225131422/https://www.thehindu.com/2003/12/08/stories/2003120810050300.htm|url-status=dead|archive-date=2018-12-25|date=2003-12-08|work=[[The Hindu]]}}&lt;/ref&gt; Trouble sparked off after the alleged rape of Rameeza Bee by police and the murder of her husband, Ahmed Hussain. Police opened fire at 11 places in a single day, and the old city was placed under [[curfew]] for 50 days in three bouts. From then on curfew became a regular feature in Hyderabad. After a gap of six years the city witnessed communal violence during September 1984 when the [[Ganesh festival]] was celebrated amidst a political crisis triggered by [[Nadendla Bhaskara Rao]] toppling the democratically elected [[N. T. Rama Rao]] Government. For the first time the entire twin cities of Hyderabad and Secunderabad were placed under curfew.<br /> <br /> ==References==<br /> {{reflist}}<br /> <br /> == See also ==<br /> *[[Rape in India]]<br /> *[[2012 Delhi gang rape and murder]]<br /> *[[2019 Hyderabad gang rape and murder]]<br /> *[[2022 Hyderabad gang rape]]<br /> *[[2024 Kolkata rape and murder]]<br /> <br /> == External links ==<br /> *https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/hyderabad/Clashes-between-communities-a-recent-history/articleshow/358583.cms<br /> <br /> {{Rape in India}}<br /> <br /> [[Category:Gang rape in India]]<br /> [[Category:Police brutality in India]]<br /> [[Category:Crime in Hyderabad, India]]<br /> [[Category:1978 crimes in India]]<br /> [[Category:Incidents of violence against women]]<br /> [[Category:Violence against women in India]]</div>
