The wife of Fasih Mahmood, a suspected member of a terror group involved in bomb blasts in Delhi and Bangalore, Monday termed his arrest in New Delhi as unlawful and vowed to challenge it in court.
‘It was a clear cut case of an unlawful arrest. My husband was arrested without any solid evidence against him. All this was done on the basis of false reports of intelligence agencies,’ Mahmood’s wife Nikhat Parveen told reporters minutes before leaving for New Delhi from Bihar’s Darbhanga district, some 125 km from here.
‘I will approach the court for justice,’ she said, indicating her intention to move the Supreme Court. Claiming that her husband was innocent, Parveen questioned the delay in his deportation from Saudi Arabia. According to police, Mahmood, 35, an engineer from Bihar, was deported from Saudi Arabia and arrested when he landed at the Delhi airport.
