Dr. Zakir Naik and IRF have repeatedly condemned AISIS (Anti-Islamic State of Iraq and Syria, a name given to the IS by Dr. Naik) for being anti-Islamic. On July 10 The Hindu had reported that Mirza Himayat Baig, the lone convict in the German Bakery blast case, was also influenced by Dr. Naik. Dr. Naik has been at the centre of controversy since it emerged that one of the terrorists involved in the Dhaka attacks earlier this month was following him on social media. The report of the Mumbai Police’s inquiry against preacher Zakir Naik is expected to be submitted to Maharashta Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis by next week, Mumbai Police Commissioner D D Padsalgikar said on Friday. Qureshi is employed at IRF as Guest Relations Manager, and as part of his role, meets several people who visit IRF.
