Kashmir separatist leader Asiya Andrabi denied meeting arrested three Hyderabad youth who allegedly wanted to join ISIS. In an exclusive interview to India Today Television, Andrabi claimed that the case against her is false.
In the interview, the hardliner admitted that she had visited Hyderabad when former SIMI Chief Syed Salahuddin died last year.
She further claimed that the visit to Hyderabad was only for the humanitarian cause.
The three Hyderabad youth, arrested for allegedly planning to join jihadi terror groups, aspired to meet the Kashmiri separatist leader Asiya Andrabi using the name of their late uncle, former chief of Students Islamic Movement of India Syed Salahuddin, police said on Tuesday.
Andrabi is a leader of the separatist Kashmiri women's group Dukhtaran-e-Millat.
"Mohd Abdulla Basith, Maaz Hasan Farooq and Syed Omer Farooq Hussaini had no direct connection with Andrabi, nor did she know them. After reaching Srinagar they wanted to meet her using their uncle's name and seek her help to cross the border and reach Jalalabad in Afghanistan," a senior officer of the special investigation team of city police said.
The trio, were picked up from Nagpur airport last week and arrested by Hyderabad police on December 27.
