Newsroom, May 2: The Delhi Police’s move to book Delhi Minorities Commission chairman Zafarul Islam Khan under sedition charges over his social media statement condemning Hindutva bigots has raised many eyebrows.
A pubic statement has been issued in solidarity with Zafarul Islam Khan by a group of NGOs and citizens which condemned the media trial targeting Khan.
The statement demanded legal action against those who are distorting Khan's Facebook post and spreading false propaganda against him.
Delhi Police Special Cell registered the FIR against Khan on the complaint of a Vasant Kunj resident. The complaint came to the Lodhi Colony office of the special cell, after the assistant commissioner of police (ACP) Safdarjung Enclave forwarded it.
The investigation has been handed over to special cell inspector Praveen Kumar.
According to the FIR, Khan has been booked under several sections of the Indian Penal Code -- 124 A (sedition) and 153 A (Promoting enmity between different groups on grounds of religion, race, place of birth, residence, language, etc,).
Khan on April 28 had posted controversial comments on his Facebook page. "Mind you, bigots, Indian Muslims have opted until now not to complain to the Arab and Muslim world about your hate campaigns and lynchings and riots. The day they are pushed to do that, bigots will face an avalanche," Khan had written on Facebook.
However, the Delhi Minorities Commission's chief on Friday had apologised for his controversial remark and had said that he never tried to tarnish the image of India. He also removed the controversial post from the social media and issued a prolonged clarification.
The development comes following the allegations of Foreign Contribution Regulation Act (FCRA) violations.

Looking at the arguments by Naik supporters it is not difficult to understand why he has billion followers..This world has more FOOLS than the intellectuals. All the bad things attracts more people.. this is the general law. These are the same people dreaming of going to heaven to enjoy 72 virgins while creating hell in the real word. The whole world laughs at their logics...Hahaha.
I think Arnab by now saw his videos in full context ... He and the indian media is silent...
I dont know how many of them are misguided by this cheddi reporter and make enemy the TRUTH.
I feel pity to cheddi member who doesnt use their intellect and watch the videos in full context so they could be spared from ignorantly harming others without knowledge which will be judged infront of the CREATOR who created U me and all the exists including the enemies of TRUTH.

If Dr. Zakir Naik is on right path, nothing will happen to him, his noble work and his organisation, in sha Allah. May Allah keep him on right path and teach good lesson to the enemies of right things.
