NIA to request Interpol to issue Red Corner Notice against controversial Islamic preacher Zakir Naik

The National Investigation Agency (NIA) has said that it will file a fresh request before the Interpol for issuing Red Corner Notice against controversial Islamic preacher Zakir Naik. <br/><br/>An NIA official said, its previous plea was rejected on the grounds that it has not filed any charge sheet against Naik. The agency said that since a charge sheet has now been filed in a special court in Mumbai, it will move the Interpol for a Red Corner Notice against Zakir Naik.<br/><br/>The controversial preacher is being probed on terror and money laundering charges. He fled from India in July last year after one of the terrorists involved in an attack on a cafe in Dhaka, claimed he was inspired by his speeches on waging jihad.
