Kishtwar (J-K), Oct 7: Maintaining that their medico son is “innocent”, parents of Waseem Akram Malik today said they have handed him over to the National Investigation Agency (NIA) in Delhi after brining him back from Bangladesh.
“I was informed by the NIA that Waseem Akram Malik is required for questioning (in connection with the Delhi High Court blast case) and in this connection NIA has given a letter to me,” Waseem's father Reyaz-ul-Hassan told PTI from New Delhi.
“I arranged the telephonic talk of my son (Waseem) with NIA officer, after that I arranged my son's return (from Dhaka) to the country and at Delhi Airport I and my wife handed over our son to NIA for questioning,” Hassan said.
Waseem is studying MBBS in a Medical Private college in Dhaka.
Reyaz-ul-Hassan said his son is innocent and on September 7 (the day of the blast) Waseem was in Jammu, and had drawn the cash from ATM and made shopping in various malls where CCTV cameras are present and the footage can be assessed to prove his presence in Jammu.
“My son is innocent and has nothing to do with Delhi blast case,” he said. 15 persons were killed and over 50 others injured in last month's blast. PTI
