New Delhi, Dec 16: The Interpol on Saturday cancelled red corner notice against Islamic preacher Dr Zakir Naik saying that the so evidence submitted by Indian government’s agencies against him was could not prove any of the terror charges levelled against him by them and media.

The Interpol contended that there was a severe lack of evidentiary basis, a failure by Indian authorities to follow due process of law, political and religious bias that formed the basis of such a notice, and lack of international interest.

In addition, the Interpol Commission also instructed all its worldwide officers to take down all the data from the files of Dr. Zakir Naik.

The Interpol was listening to the request made by The National Central Bureau of Interpol of India made in May 2017 pertaining to Naik.

The Indian NCB of Interpol had requested for Red Corner Notice against Naik accusing him of “promoting enmity between two different religious groups on grounds of religion and doing acts prejudicial to the maintenance of harmony, being a member of unlawful Association etc”.

The Indian government, through the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) had banned Naik and his organisation, the Islamic Research Foundation (IRF) in November last year.

Earlier in October, the NIA had filed a chargesheet against the internationally acclaimed orator accusing him of promoting enmity and hatred between religious groups in India through his speeches and lectures.

Dr Naik was also charged with conspiring with Islamic Research Foundation’s (IRF) Trust and the Harmony Media Private Limited to commit the offences. He has been chargesheeted under section 10 UA (P) Act and Sections 120B, 153A, 295A, 298 and 505(2) IPC.

The investigating agency claimed that there were 19 immovable properties, including land and building, worth Rs 104 crore connected with the Zakir Naik. The source, as well as the mode of acquisition of these properties, is being investigated.

The NIA claimed that Zakir Naik deliberately insulted other religions or religious beliefs under the aegis of IRF with help of HMPL to cause dissatisfaction.

The 51-year-old scholar of comparative religion, who is currently abroad, is being probed under terror and money-laundering charges by the NIA. He did not visit India after Indian media began a hate campaign against him after a Bangladeshi newspaper reported that one of the terrorists had followed him on Facebook.

The NIA had on November 18, 2016, registered a case against Naik at its Mumbai branch under various sections of the Indian Penal Code and Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA).

His Mumbai-based NGO, Islamic Research Foundation has already been declared an unlawful association by the Union home ministry.

Alhamdulilah...NIA made fool out of themself. Now what is next course of action by NIA? Hemanth Karkere was best Officer who was killed. They never probe his death, They have blamed pakistan for his death. NIA thinks Indian public is filled with fools. Now NIA has shown its true colors. All of sudden they came to Bangalore arrested so many professionals & what happend?? . Unless we change our constitution, these politicians will take INDIAN public for ride. Those who want to contest for any political post minimum requirement should be Degree & no Criminal Background. Then we will see only small amount of ministers left to rule this country.

Alhamdullillah (Thanks to God)  ...Zakir Naik is just waking up the hindus to look who our CREATOR is? If the cheddis try to stop the people who doesnt know more about GOD and encourage worshiping the created things they will doom all of you with them to the hell which is ETERNAL... 

 

So we request the Non Muslims to know the CREATOR of all that Exists which is NA TASYA PrATIMA ASTI... there is no image of God and if You are worshiping any image or stones or lifeless objects Then its not GOD , It cannot help U nor harm U ...Wake up guys LOOK what he advices from your own scriptures ... Try to Verify . U will find the CREATOR, IF U R honest in your intension. Good Luck
