New Delhi: All India Muslim Majlis-e Mushawarat, the umbrella body of Indian Muslim organisations, on Friday took serious note of the claim by Rahul Gandhi that singed by the riots and killings in Muzaffarnagar district of the state, many Muslim youth were in touch with Pakistan's intelligence agency ISI (Inter-Services Intelligence).
Dr Zafarul-Islam Khan, President of AIMMM, said that this is yet another concocted story perfected by the Intelligence Bureau which has caused 21 fake encounters in Gujarat and many more elsewhere like Batla House.
Dr Khan said Rahul Gandhi should ask IB to provide proof of what its officer has claimed.
"Failing to produce clear proof, this officer should be punished because he is simply paving the ground to fake another "IM" module in Muzaffarnagar to persecute Muslims who are already victims of Sangh violence", he said.
Congress Vice President Rahul Gandhi while addressing a rally on Thursday said that "A couple of days ago, an intelligence officer walked into my office and told me that people from Pakistan are talking to the relatives of Muslims killed in Muzaffarnagar. The officer told me that he has been trying to convince victims not to get swayed by Pakistani propaganda."
Dr Khan said this is the same IB whose director had faked the CD of Rajiv Gandhi's assassination site which showed that IB was in cahoots with his killers. Regrettably, that officer, long retired, still enjoys the government's largesse.
Dr Khan said IB is an unconstitutional body which has tried to usurp a lot of powers and authority over the years.
"An Act of Parliament should be quickly passed to make this rogue organisation accountable to Parliament", he said.
"Moreover, its huge secret funds must be scrutinised by outside auditors and by CAG. Over the years Sangh elements and sympathisers have heavily infiltrated into this secret outfit and they are using it to marginalise and criminalise minorities", Dr Khan said.
