Hyderabad: The family
of a city student who was arrested by the Bangalore police Friday
in an alleged terror plot has claimed that he is innocent.
Kausar Begum, mother of Mohammed Ubaidru Rehman, said he had no
links with any terror outfit or anybody from Bangalore.
She told reporters that the police were trying to implicate him in
a false case as the family is related to Moulana Naseeruddin, a
cleric who was arrested by Gujarat police in connection with the
murder of former Gujarat home minister Haren Pandya.
Moulana Naseeruddin spent six years in a Gujarat jail and was
acquitted.
The Bangalore police arrested 26-year-old Ubaidur Rehman, a B.Com
student in a city college, from Gulshan-e-Iqbal Colony in
Chandrayangutta area of the old city.
Rehman was taken to Bangalore, where he is likely to be produced
before the court Saturday.
The undergraduate student was arrested on charges of having links
with 11 terror suspects arrested by Karnataka Police from
Bangalore and Hubli.
The youth were arrested on charges of having links with banned
outfits Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) and Harkat-ul-Jihad-al-Islami (HuJI)
and plotting terror attacks in Karnataka.
The Bangalore police with the help of state counterintelligence is
also questioning a couple of others in Hyderabad.
Kausar, who has seven sons, including Rehman, and a daughter, said
that on the day he was arrested, her son had gone out of the house
for some work, but did not return.
The family was informed of the arrest late Friday. Police did not
disclose the charges under which he was arrested.
Kausar, whose husband died four years ago, said her son suffered
from asthma and required an inhaler.
"He was never involved in any illegal activity and has no links
whatsoever with any outfit," she said, demanding her son's
immediate release.
Condemning the arrest Moulana Naseeruddin said that if police had
proof against Rehman, a warrant could have been issued for his
arrest, instead of just picking him up.
