Mumbai, Oct 27: The National Investigation Agency (NIA), which filed a charge sheet against the Islamic Research Foundation (IRF) founder Dr Zakir Abdul Karim Naik, has claimed that he deliberately and maliciously insulted the religious beliefs of Hindus, Christians and ‘non-Wahabi Muslims’. However, it did not explain what is Wahabi and what is non-Wahabi.

According to NIA, there are 19 immovable properties, including land and buildings, worth ₹104 crore, connected with Dr Naik. The charge sheet, filed in the NIA court, will pave the way for agencies to procure a Red Corner Notice against Dr Naik, who is currently abroad, and refused to return to India claiming that security agencies have leveled false charges against him.

The charge sheet mentions a speech given by Dr Naik in September 2012 during the Ganapati festival, and another speech in Srinagar that was uploaded to his Facebook account by the IRF for public view.

The charge sheet says that nine speeches and/or utterings, in particular, were found to be inflammatory as they hurt the religious sentiments. It also claimed that Dr Naik’s speeches incited violence.

Dr Naik, along with the IRF and Harmony Media Private Limited have been charged under several sections of the Indian Penal Code, andSection 10 (penalty for being member of an unlawful association) of the Unlawful Activities Prevention Act.

The charge sheet says investigations have established that Dr Naik and his associates have been promoting enmity and hatred between different religious groups in India and initiating Muslim youth and terrorists in India and abroad to commit unlawful activities and terrorist acts. These activities are causing disaffection against the Government of India, are prejudicial to the maintenance of harmony amongst communities and likely to disturb tranquility, it adds.

The investigation establishes that incriminating public speeches have been in circulation through electronic media, and have been, and continue to be seen, across the world. The minutes of IRF’s Board of Trustees' meetings disclose that the IRF had approved, organised, promoted and funded public lectures of accused Dr Naik, including his incriminating speeches, the charge sheet says. Seized material such as DVD and books list the IRF as the publisher.

Clean chit to Dr Zakir Naik’s sister

The agency gives a clean chit to Nailah Naushad Noorani, sister of Dr Naik, who was a trustee of the IRF Educational Trust along with him. When Dr Naik became a Non Resident Indian in 2013, he appointed Ms Noorani as the Director in Harmony Median as well as Longlast Constructions Company, in his place. But it was found that she was Director on paper only — all the affairs of companies were handled by her brother.

She signed the cheques on the instruction of her brother and had no knowledge of the company affairs. Furthermore, she had received ₹29 crore from Dr Naik through her parents’ bank account between 2013 and 2016. This money was further invested into Harmony Media and Longlast Constructions company as per Dr Naik’s instructions, the charge sheet says.

Bengaluru, June 1: Prime Minister Narendra Modi today praised the Karnataka government for its handling of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Addressing the silver jubilee celebrations of the Rajiv Gandhi University of Health Sciences (RGUHS) via a digital platform, he spoke about the Karnataka government's efforts.

He appreciated the work of front-line warriors who are fighting every day in the war against COVID-19 and stressed the need to respect them.

"Doctors and other medical workers are soldiers without wearing the uniform of soldiers. Any kind of attack or violence against them is not acceptable," said Modi.

"There are incidents of violence against the front-line warriors. Any kind of abuse, violence or rude behaviour is not acceptable. The world is looking at doctors and medical staff with gratitude," he said.

"This is the biggest crisis since the two World Wars," the prime minister said. "Pre- and post-COVID-19, the world will be different. The discussions now at a global level are humanity-centric."

Stressing the importance of medical infrastructure, the prime minister spoke about the decision taken by the Union Government to set up a medical college in every district.

"A nation like ours has to have the medical infrastructure and medical education. Now, every district is going to have a medical college," he said.

However, the PM remained silent on salaries of front-line warriors. The Karnataka government has so far not released the salaries of doctors, nurses and lab technicians hired under National Health Mission.
