Legal course only option: Family
Srinagar, Mar 12: Disappointed by the statement of Home Minister Sushil Kumar Shinde that body of Muhammad Afzal Guru won’t be returned, the family members of Afzal Tuesday said they have been left with no option than to opt for a legal course.
Talking to Greater Kashmir over phone, Guru’s elder brother Aijaz Ahmed said they were surprised at Shinde’s statement. “The Government of India has denied the body as if their collective conscience is yet to satisfy,” he said.
Aijaz said the state government, according to reports, had forwarded the family’s request on Afzal’s body to the Government of India. “We are surprised over the denial policy of New Delhi,” he said. “We will take a legal course now.”
