Zakir Naik's alleged follower arrested under UAPA for role in conversion'

July 22, 2016

Mumbai, Jul 22: In more trouble for doctor-turned-Islamic preacher Zakir Naik, as one of his alleged followers has been arrested by the Maharashtra ATS and the Kerala Police in a joint operation in connection with suspected conversion case of missing Kerala youths.

Police sources said that Arshid Qureshi was arrested after one of the relatives of a missing youth from Kerala accused the former of instigating Hindus and Christians to stop idol worshipping and accept Islam.

Meanwhile, news agencies such as ANI and Times of India have claimed that Arshid Qureshi was a close aide of Dr Zakir Naik and that he was recruiting Kerala youths for the terror outfit Islamic State. However, police have not confirmed these allegations.

Based on a complaint of a Kerala family, the police have booked Qureshi under Sections 153A (promoting enmity between different groups), 34 IPC and 13 UAPA.

If Qureshi's links with IRF is established, this could be the first arrest of a Dr Naik's organisation, which is under scanner since a section of media claimed that two of the Bangladesh cafe attackers were inspired by his preaching.

According to reports, Qureshi was held after the police raided a flat in Seawoods. He was produced before a magistrate's court in CBD-Belapur on Thursday and remanded in transit custody for four days. He will be questioned by the Maharashtra ATS and later taken to Kerala.

Ebin Jacob (25), the brother of Merin alias Mariam who is missing along with her husband Bestin Vincent alias Yahia from Kerala, had told police that there was an attempt to forcibly convert him to Islam and make him join IS.

Ebin had reportedly told Kochi police that Bestin and Qureshi were behind the attempted conversion.

Based on this statement, the Palarivattom police slapped charges under Section 13 of the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA) on the duo and booked them under sections of the IPC.

The case against Qureshi and Bestin could be the first registered under UAPA against any of the 21 Keralites who have gone missing under suspicious circumstances.

I listen to all types of Moulanas ....I will pick up which looks correct for me Allah has given me brain to analyse the things....I am not a blind follower of any thing.....In Islam every thing has LOGIC and we have to undrstand properly....So you do not have any answer, as to which Imam was followed by Prophet ( PBUH )

Mone, Moodbidri..... Which ......ism was followed by our Prophet ( PBUH )

Dear Guru,
Zakir naik studied Comparative religions and it is his right to tell the TRUTH...
In Vedas it is mentioned that NA TASYA PRATIMA ASTI. (There is no idols).. For so long YOur own hindu priests have misguided U guys and ask u people to worship the man made creation like Pratima, idols, pictures, status, worst is the animals and some even worse, they worship the naked people instead of following the Scriptures.

Now ZAKIR naik is telling the truth that there is no IDOL worship in Hinduism itself and the people (who says we are Head) who discriminate others are the leaders of YOUR religion...
U have to learn Y VEDAS say NA TASYA PRATImA ASTI... read and PONDER on this verse also compare it with what ISLAM says about Worshiping ONE GOD.... without image or statues... It will be clear to U & U will realize U are being FOOLED by the HEADS to bow down to the CREATION of ALLAH (god).
God's help come if YOUR intention is HONEST and U search for the TRUTH... TRY it (Just say : O the one who created ME - Guide ME)

TRUTH will prevail Falsehood will perish... even if the deception is as high as the mountain... which many people are blind to see.

Dear Sister Fatimah,

Let him stop poking other religion .. we used to leave happily in 90's .. why only now we are facing problems?...Why my friends ( not a naik's fans) are such a loving persons compared to zakir naik followers ..It shows thier mentality towards others .. its not good for society

Brother Guru,

Brother Neither Naik nor rss gangs can harm India.It is only our thinking ,assumptions promote it.Zakir Naik is a self made man,since it is duty of every mislim to invite non muslim for dialogue(da'wah) ,he is following it.We are obliged to spread the Islamic views to world or else it is a debt on us when we die.Thats it.He was doing his duty.He didnot force anyone to Islam.As he himself asks the non muslim openly do anyone force yo?Is it for fame or money you come to Islam etc?So there is no question of forced conversion.

However all Indian must understand it is a political gimmick by ruling party and some vested intrests who finds profit in defaming nother community people.They are slowly brainwashing the good hindus to hardcore hindus and attach social stigma status on muslims.But we dont care coz we know whatever Allah does is for good.Islam is the solution to mankind not a problem.

No one can convert by force anyone....people are understanding what is right and wrong...if someone understands what is Islam and its truthfulness...then he or she does not need anybodies force to convert...

Zakir Naik did not convert anyone forcefully...if you look at any of his speeches....

one of my friend was die hard fan of zakir...but after the media exposed about his assets and drama about conversion he changed his mind...now he is not following him to save india

so i request my fellow indians to not to follow fraud naik and please save our beautiful country

follow sufism to stop terrorism

One new convert was asked to support jihad ...it is well known fact that women are being trapped to fall in love by giving money to jobless jihadists ...then they are made to join Isis ..same thing happened in Kerala ...yesterday we saw Pakistan flag flying over a jihadis house and last week PFI shouted anti India and pro Pakistan slogans and owaisi offered help to Isis members ...it proves this community wants serious escalation of violence.

Mr.zakir naik is next asaraam bapu of india...soo many dumb followers with lot of property...jaago followers jaago

Yediyurappa appeals for support to 'Janata Curfew'

News Network

March 21,2020

Bengaluru, Mar 21: Appealing for support to the Prime Minister's call for observing 'Janata Curfew' on Sunday to contain the outbreak of COVID-19, Karnataka Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa has asked people not to come on roads immediately after the end of curfew time as it can nullify the measure.

Noting that people have extended both moral and societal support to this unique curfew, he said "Now, my appeal to people on behalf of Prime Minister Narendra Modiji is, don't come on roads and out of your dwellings immediately after nine in the night when curfew time ends. Remain settled in your houses and bungalows avoiding all public appearances on roads and other public places."

"Your coming out in open can nullify the 14-hour measure to contain the spread of virus. As a co-operation to authorities and the society, please remain indoors and stay with your near and dear ones," he said in a release.

Calling for "resolve and restraint" to fight the virus, the Prime Minister during his address to the nation on Thursday had asked the entire country to observe 'Janata curfew' on Sunday.

Calling for a 'Janata curfew' on March 22 from 7 am-9 pm, Modi had said no citizen, barring those in essential services, should get out of their house, and asserted that it will be a litmus test to show how much India is ready to take on the challenge of the coronavirus pandemic.

Stating the Karnataka government has so far been dealing successfully in containing the Covid-19 virus, Yediyurappa said this has happened because of people's co- operation.

He also asked people not to forget to involve in a bout of applause as a mark of appreciation to people involved in containing the spread of the virus and treating those affected by it.

Three new COVID-19 cases have been confirmed in Karnataka on Saturday, taking the total number of infections to 18 in the state.

Late coffee baron Siddhartha routed Rs 2,693 crore from Coffee Day to another firm: probe

News Network

July 26,2020

Bengaluru, Jul 26: A year-long probe by Coffee Day Enterprises Ltd (CDEL) has found that its late founder V G Siddhartha routed Rs 2,693 crore out of the company to Mysore Amalgamated Coffee Estates Ltd (MACEL), another privately-owned entity of him.

The MACEL owes Rs 3,535 crore to subsidiaries of Coffee Day Enterprises as of July 31, 2019 of which only Rs 842 crore was accounted.

"Therefore, a sum of Rs 2,693 crore is the incremental outstanding that needs to be addressed," said the report of an investigation headed by Ashok Kumar Malhotra, a retired DIG of Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) and assisted by law firm Agastya Agastya Legal.

Siddhartha was found dead in early August 2019, and many suspected that he had committed suicide.

Steps are being taken by subsidiaries of CDEL for recovery of dues from MACEL, the company said.

"The board authorised the Chairman to appoint an ex-judge of the Supreme Court or the High Court, or any other person of eminence, to suggest and oversee actions for recovery of the dues from MACEL and to help on any other associated matters," it said in regulatory filings at stock exchanges late on Friday.

The probe further gives clean chits to the Income Tax Department and the private equity firms who Siddhartha in his parting letter had alleged of harassment.

"We have not been provided with any documentary evidence to draw an inference that there may have been any advertent or inadvertent harassment from the Income Tax Department," said the probe report.

The probe also highlighted severe liquidity crunch at CDEL in the build-up to Siddhartha's death.

A committee supported by senior professionals was formed to protect the interest of all stakeholders. CDEL said the debt levels which were about Rs 7,200 crore on March 31, 2019 have been brought down significantly by Rs 4,000 crore. The present debt of the group is around Rs 3,200 crore.

"The disinvestment process in the group continues and we are confident to have effective solution to all stakeholders," it said.
