'Don't make wild, hasty speculations about Gaya blasts'

July 07, 2013 16:47

Vicky Nanjappa reports: The All India Muslim Majlis-e-Mushawarat, an umbrella body of Muslim organisations in India, has condemned the 'Mynanmar angle' that has been pointed out by some experts as a likely motive behind the Gaya blasts.

Dr Zaffrul Islam Khan, president, asked the media to desist from "irresponsible, wild and hasty speculation".

"The media should behave in a responsible manner and allow the security and intelligence experts to do their work without any pressure to come up with quick results without proper investigations," he said.

The investigating agencies should probe the case with an open mind, said Dr Khan, adding that there had been many cases of innocent Muslim youths framed for earlier terror acts which were actually committed by right-wing elements.

"We have all the goodwill for our Buddhist brothers and sisters and want the best of relations with them all over the world," he said.
